In a corridor full of people, I stand
Unpaired and unmatched with all mankind
My heart agape and shedding tears
There’s surely no comfort for me here
.
I see their faces, I see their smiles
All hiding pain behind their eyes
I feel my pain, I see it too
But I just want to be with you
.
Whoever you are, way out there
My bleeding heart can barely bear
All this turmoil and all this strife
All that I lead in this lonely life
.
In etched out shadows from darkness’ cave
I cower in pain, I’m barely brave
Enough to stand on my own two feet
And stare in the face of my defeat
.
Defeat from how I feel inside
Defeat from whom I surely hide
But how can I hide from myself
When mind and body and soul, I’m dealt
.
Tears do fall from my beady eyes
They burn my skin as they tough my thigh
How can a grown mam be so untamed
By emotions’ whip, I must abstain
.
I need some peace, I need you
To love me deep and love me true
For my heart feels like a thousand men
Marching into the depths of a lions’ den
For all are bold and trained to fight
But who does not feat a lion’s might?
.
It beats so fast, it beats me up
Till it fills my overflowing cup
Lying down, talking to my phone
I just don’t want to be alone


Nice.
Mam; man. A minor error.
Let your heart not bleed, you hear?
“heart like a thousand men marching into a lions den…” I love this description ’cause I’ve felt this way sometime.
Very nice a moody.
Eiyaa.
