The heart that wants to feel
It is so full
If not released
I fear it will explode
Shall I ever breathe again
Like an animal trapped in a cage
Content to stay
Looking for a way
When the door opens, will I find
My way out
Will I see and understand?
In this world I am surrounded
But feel all alone
No one to hear, but many who listen
The many wrongs, that are so right
The pain to understand
Is this the plan?
Countless things to do, so many to help
So little time, feeling like an eternity
Who will help me to understand?
Will you hate to hear me
To cry of hurt, to love me
That which you do not see
I am so scared, my heart beats calmly
The urgency of flight, to be content
As the restless winds
This life to understand which
I do not belong, yet am a part of
These things in me, I wish you to see
to be a child, to be held
To be an adult, to know passion
To feel the nurturing, to be carressed
To feel the freedom, that has roots
To grow and learn, to be me
Will you understand?
Seeing without sight
Hearing without sound
Talking without words
Feeling without touch
Knowing the spirit of the soul
Will we ever understand?
Down inside will we know why
Where does my life begin?
