Dismantled
I stand here with my head against the wall
Feeling as though my world is about to fall
I have tried and tried to succeed in this life
But all I end up with is a multitude of strife
Is this the way my world will come to an end
With a dismantled heart that no one can mend
I take a look in the mirror as my eyes fill with tears
It's been a life full of depression well beyond my years
There is a perplexing fear deep in my heart
But I do my best to show the world a different part
I have done a good job of concealing the pain
Although inside my tears fall like pouring rain
Hiding my soul from the world is a difficult task
But its fear that binds me so tightly to this mask
I would love to open my heart to someone I trust
However concealing all these feelings is a must
To reveal to the world my immense amount of grief
Could possible leave it in pure disbelief
I don't want to depress anyone with all of this
As I know that its sorrow that they will not miss
So the feelings are hidden just as they were before
Safely guarded behind a lock and a closed door
Encompassing my essence is where they will stay
Until I meet that trustworthy person someday
