If you could see through me to my soul
What would you see...

Look at my smile,
see what I hide...

Don't let dreams slip through your fingers
For if they do...

For now I try
To look to the sky...

Here I am, a hiding girl
crying as my story unfurls...

I'm distant
Not hidden away alone distant...

Everything you say to me
Every bit of kindness you've shown me...

More often than not
I find I do not understand myself...

Broken and Shattered;
a life gone pale...

I am a deep maroon rose
Dark and easy to wilt...

I am the warm wind
Sent to rustle your hair...

Something I've always wanted
And now I'm glad I tried...
