External confidence

Internal fear

No one knows

Except those who are near

Expecting love

Receiving less

They won’t listen

There’s no need to confess

Fading strength

Depleted health

Missed opportunities

Losing yourself

Always listening

Never heard

So much is said

Without saying a word

It’s time to stand up

To raise your head high

To loosen the shackles

At last you must fly

Abused and unused

Your wings may be weak

Never fear, I will carry you

And be your voice when you speak

Never again

Will we be apart

Because you may not know it

But you have a piece of my heart
