i remember when you asked me,
"why do you keep it all inside?"
i clearly remember my answer,
"for i have too much to hide."

do you remember when you asked
how i continue to struggle on?
my answer was simple,
"for i have found reasons to be strong"

"these years of torment hold a lightness,
or do they only hold your screams?"
and i responded, forgivingly,
"they hold my broken dreams."

i remember when you asked why all the smiles were gone
and all the laughter forgotten.
"for the world cannot hold back a tear,
and for this it is rotten."

in a world of black and white
i cannot hold back anymore.
maybe the fact is that i am scared
scared of messing up like i did before

and now, i sit, not alone but still afraid,
for i do not know if this is clear,
i do not know how you hear my words,
do they still sound sincere?
