I woke up that night
In the dark
Looking for an answer
Seeking for someone
To hear my call
I was shivering and afraid
Alone by the sidewalk
Crying out of tears
Trying to understand when things went wrong
What was it that broke that heart of mine?
I whispered to the wind to take me far away from here
To ease the ache inside of my soul
That has been captivated for so long
But it needs to be released for I can’t take it anymore
All those scars covering my face
Hiding my identity
And concealing the grief
Faking what I feel
I stood between the fire and water
Choosing the fire
Knowing that the water would heal
But it was that one step that burned
And revealed the agony
When it was too late to turn back
and ask forgivness
water has evaporated
and I am still standing in the fire
searching desperately for a drop of water
to bring me back to reality
