My tears fall on hardened ground
Like whispers spoken to unhearing ears
Sorrow fills the depths of my soul
So much is lost of me
I feel as if I have no direction
And no place to go

No one cares to hear the concerns
Of a distraught soul
When will my heart heal
From all this pain caused by some unknown
If only I could just let go
Of the cloak I have used
to shroud myself from pain

Everyday goes by
Lived in fear
Of the unknown
Every step I take towards some goal
Every door that is opened
And wall that is broken
All my efforts to soothe and appease my soul
Are stopped, slammed shut
In a sudden instant of fear
Of the unknown

What might be
I do not know
I only wish to just let go
I want to feel the tears that fall
From within myself
But the fear of what may be ripped away
And left exposed
Stops me in my tracks
Along my path
Toward a higher plane
Toward a better goal
