Inner Dwellings of a Previously Happy Soul

I wonder if you already know

That I am totally beyond the end of my rope 

Every step of the way 

You have been there to guide me

Always protecting me from harm 

I want to run and sit beside you 

Like I did as a child 

And tell you my deepest secrets

Secrets that I have held on to for years 

Explaining the tears and sadness caused

By the ultimate betrayal

By more than one person 

In more than one way

But I fear I'm too old 

And have come to far

To take off the mask I wear and start anew
