INSIDE THE HEART OF ME
I’ve often wondered what others see
When they look into the heart of me
Do they see a soul screaming to be loved?
An empty space, abandoned, longing to be filled,
Or do they stop short at the smile on my face
Missing the agony in eyes hurt and disgraced?
Do people bother to look past the surface,
into the core of the human spirit?
Is it too much work to actually see
What truly lies in the heart of me?
When they look into the heart of me
Do they see a soul screaming to be loved?
An empty space, abandoned, longing to be filled,
Or do they stop short at the smile on my face
Missing the agony in eyes hurt and disgraced?
Do people bother to look past the surface,
into the core of the human spirit?
Is it too much work to actually see
What truly lies in the heart of me?
