Find your heart

How long

Until I find who I am 

 

I ask myself 

Because all I see 

Is the girl in the mirror

 

Skin rough as sandpaper

Brain that does not work

The way it's meant to

 

When I fall 

I used to get up

Now I just lie there

I've lost my strength

I've lost my heart

My way and my home

 

The light is here

I still feel the warmth 

See the golden rays

 

Yet on nights like this

With the moon over my head

Fears strangle my mind heart and soul

 

The only time

I feel at home

Is with friends

And family

 

I wish I could spend all my days

Hanging with those who know me

Through and through

 

Yet I sit in school

Barely getting through to the next sunrise

 

I hope I find my heart 

Around the next corner
