Alone

By rondant

I didn't want to admit it,
it was easier to lie,
to hide the hurt and emptiness,
to smile instead of cry.

I didn't want to face the fact
my life is full of pain
And i long to stop my bleeding heart
and maybe smile again.

Because i feel oh-so-forgotten
so betrayed and so alone
without a trace of forgivness,
and no soul to call my own.

I didn't want to admit the fact
I cannot spread my wings and fly
and the happiness has melted
into tears and other things.

It's so hard for me to hide the fact
my wishes have no home
and return my anguish
bow my head and cry alone.
