| EXPRESSION Face fallen, cast adrift Fear and pain that won't lift. The turmoil that fogs my brain Sends me spinning round again. Staring with hearts of steel They look, they do not feel. They cannot taste the hurt inside me Sense the emotions that terrify me. Have to laugh, try to smile Need to make my life worthwhile. Can I be what I was before Was that good? I can't be sure. Standing on the edge of reality Walking the tightrope between madness and sanity. How do I explain the confusion that blinds me? My mind is my haven to comfort and guide me. My mind tries to tell me that my world will be a better place That they will see past my face. That I won't be scared to be The person that's inside of me. My face is just one part of me Who I am they do not see. Who I am is not what they read or say Who I am is beneath what words can give away. One day the clouds will part And life for me will restart. Pushing away the barriers that bind, Giving me some hope to find The me that fear took away The me that should be here today. He gave me life, He gave me hope. He didn't show me how to cope. But He took my hand and showed to me All the things that I could be. The rest is mine to live to be And trust the way is there to see. Splash |

| THE CENTRE All of us strangers, just a name on the screen Our thoughts being typed, our faces never seen One thing in common, yet not always the same Not knowing what causes it, not knowing who to blame We go out in the world and we face our fears Sometimes we come home our cheek streaked with tears The world is unkind, they dont have a clue We are scared and alone not knowing what to do As we sit in our chair and type in the words The screen comes alive, our fears are heard From one side of the world to the very other We come from all over to help one another To share our thoughts our feelings too To hold each other up during the times we are blue. To have a good laugh, or to be able to cry To open our hearts, or just to ask why So out in to the world each one of us must go With our heads held high and our strength to show. Knowing in our minds when the day is full of woe That we can come home and log on to a place where people know. Carrie |
