you don't know the girl i am
the soul inside this body
this heart broken one too many times
i alone know my words
the ones caressing my lips as i speak
protruding from my mouth
unconditionally
against my will
fighting to be free
but i don't want you to know
i don't want you to see
to see, to invision the being i am
the mind i possess
what makes me me
i am something unknown
unexplained and undefined
from the forgotten past due to
self induced neglect to
the abandonment welcomed
now with strength never adapted
and unbound hope
surrendered to love never lost
but left behind in time and lies
a soul left behind i cannot reach
a willed search gone wrong
that is where i hide
