would you listen when i speak?

So I speak to you of sadness,

With the coming of the rain

And I’m beginning to feel the pain;

When all around is sad and gloomy,

And I suddenly long for my sanctuary.

So I speak to you of fear,

When darkness continuously surrounds me;

The shadows of the unknown haunt me,

Blinding my eyes and holding me back

Wiping out the way; obliterating the tracks

So I speak to you of confusion,

As I stand on the crossroads alone.

Oh how I long for the comforts of home.

But the glare of the road ahead is blinding me

Until there is nothing left to see

So I speak to you of weakness.

When I know that I will be damned.

In our world that easily condemns;

Where strength is the only game to play;

Humiliation could be the price to pay

So I speak to you of intense pain.

It echoes in the deepest corners of my heart.

Silently screaming out all the hurts,

And I long for someone to understand

Everything that lies hidden deep inside

So I speak to you of loneliness and isolation.

When I long for another heart’s touch and smile.

Would you then sit with me awhile?

Would you take my hand and walk with me,

For just a moment, let’s touch eternity.
