Who Am I To You?

The rain begins to fall
But I’m not sure I can feel
Drops beat across my face
But still there is no taste
A gaping hole in the place
Of a place-a part of soul
Wounded but no blood
Just a stinging pain
Who else is left to know?
Time wore on
And pictures fade
Enough is not enough
Independance hangs
Balanced on a string
Tell me...
Who decides the Fate?
Questions burn
And anger breathes
But who am I to say
Whats right
Whats wrong
And who is left to blame?
Pain belongs to no one
Just passes like disease
Leaves it’s mark
In time may fade
But who am I to you?
Not strength, not friend nor foe
Just a memory in a book
A closed page of this life
So tell me...
Who am I to you?
Collected years
Tossed aside
For answers not yet known
Failed attempts to understand
The persons we’ve become
Perserverance lays in peace
Beside my faith in love
The cost was just too great
The worth was not enough
The rain begins to fall
But I’m not sure I can tell
Doubt befriends my heart

...For somehow who I am is never enough
