Young
My heart is a mess,
This is no guess.
Where is my soul?
That once was whole.
Everything has gone away,
That once made me smile.
The dept we pay...
For human denial.
I plead for assistance,
"Child" they say.
"Young is the word,
You know nothing of pain.
Just stories you heard,
& they are all in vein."
So I lay down my head,
For a night of rest.
I close my eyes,
& dream of the best.
