Every Time
Every time you fail, you hide…
You add another brick to the wall.
And every time you close off your inner self…
You push father away from those you love.
When you feel you don’t belong,
And refuse to reveal your emotions…
Not only do you turn those you care most about away,
But you lose a piece of yourself as well…
You forget yourself…
Turn into a reflection of your surroundings,
Leaving your soul empty and sad within…
Creating a void of envy for all of eternity,
For those who reveal themselves with certainty!
