People grow through experience if they meet life honestly and courageously. This is how character is built. -- Eleanor Roosevelt<br /> People with courage and character always seem sinister to the rest. -- Herman Hesse


You carry this burden
Does no one help you?
And deep down you are hurting,
I’ve put together all the clues

I can see the pain in your eyes,
It pierces when you look into mine.
It’s like I can hear the silent cries.
You’re emotions now in twine.

Put your guard down.
I am only here to help.
Let the walls fall to the ground.
You don’t have to do this all yourself.

If you just opened the door.
Or even gave me the key.
...Over all your feelings you begin to pore.
You need me, so I will not leave.

I know the state of your condition.
And I will not abandon.
Your feelings are in the same location,
Deep down in your heart yearning to get out.

i like it. i can tell it's true by the way you...i don't know, i can just tell. maybe you shouldn't focus so much on rhyming, but just getting your emotions portrayed.
