Walled up inside, she walks alone

Cross beaten paths adorned with stone

And bushes reaching out to grab

A traveller who has left her home.

Her face may be decently fair,

But beauty fades each passing layer.

Inside her heart a malice breeds

Yet onlookers are unaware.

Each step she takes across the fields

Of blossoms rich and lovely yields

A gravesite ready to receive

The flowers' corpses who's fates she sealed.

Those who have looked into her eyes

Can see despair brewing inside.

The pools of pain and anger fill

Each nook and cranny in her mind.

Her voice sends chills through those who hear

The words she speaks. With sounds she tears

Through warmth and comfort others own

Till aching silence is all that's there.

[sometimes it takes the opposite to heal a hurting heart]

Baby, wipe away the smile
'cause somewhere buried underneath
I see a pool of lonely tears
Slowly deepening their reach.

Baby, turn your laugh on mute
'cause drowning underneath the waves
I hear a empty, lonely cry
That's been going on for days.

Baby, no you're not alright,
No matter what you're 'bout to say.
Just let me steal your smile and hush your laugh
And in time you'll be ok.

I am a mystery hidden from view
I carry treasures seen only by few
I am a secret with much to unveil
Unknown waters for someone to sail

I have a light that has yet to shine
Softness within like an old, kept wine
Tenderness brewing but yet to release
Gentleness shown in the want to appease

I have a beauty I choose not to flaunt
Now's not the time to stir others' want
I have seduction from others I'll spare
Qualities hidden, so precious and rare

I am a prize that one's yet to win
Wild new land where no one has been
I am a pathway that's yet to be trod
Locked away valuables buried by God

Don't try to discover what's not yours to find
Spare me my heart; take the thoughts from my mind
