Deep Down Inside My Heart

Look into my heart
Just for a moment
That's all I ask for
So that you can see what makes me, me

In my heart there are scars.
Scars caused from emotional abuse
Feeling like I had no absolute use.
Physical scars as well, from the cuts where all my pain tried to flow out.
But having to do it again and again only made me weak in the end.

In my heart there is desire
Desire to sing and do everything I can possibly do.
Desires no one knows about just yet.
They are my secrets to keep.
For now...

In my heart there is hidden love
Love dying to come out.
Yet we are to good of friends
And I want to cry because I know I can never have him.
I feel like a caged dove.

In my heart there is sadness
Sadness for the world today
For all that have been lead astray
Sadness for myself and others.
This is something I cannot control.

In my heart there is regret
Regret for the things that could've been
Things I could've done
Things I could've done differently
Thoughts overwhlem my mind.
Saying what would've happened?

In my heart there is love
Love for all my true friends
The people who I'm most close to
To the people who understands me the most.
Love for babies and small children
They're the next generation
It doesn't hurt that they're so small and cute.

In my heart there is happiness
Happiness for all things good.
Happiness is the thing that keeps me going, what I know I'll always have in the end.

In my heart there is hope
Hope for everything that goes on
Hope for the world
Hope for people
Hope for broken hearts
Hope for hidden love
No matter what life may bring whether sadness or happiness or whatever the case may be.
In the end there will always be that small little shred of hope.

There are many more things
Deep down inside my heart.
Things that if I would've written them all down
Lets just say I'd probably have grey hair by then.
But I don't have this just inside me,
We all have these things
At some point or another

Keep it real
Stay true to yourself
This the keypoint
Thanks for listening to a teenagers heart

Maybe one day.....
We'll all listen to what is in each others hearts.
If we wish to change this world
That is where we must start.
