They are my truth
they sing my song
they are words from inside
kept so close and held so tight
how were we to know it would end
and end without much of a fight?
I strum the strings of my air guitar
singing as loud as I can
hoping no one notices the tears falling
from where they stand.
My voice carries to the next room
making a mother cry
she stares out the window
thinking of her broken heart with a loud sigh
A sister mutes the television
hearing only me sing my heart out
trying heal from this collision
A friend on the other line goes quiet
as I spill my soul, wanting me to be okay.
I sing my song, share my soul
and they never know what to say.
The world goes silent around me
as I sing, voice floating to passers by
Singing with abandon I let them see
everything inside of me while I cry.
Rising note after note, I sob out my song
a mother and sister hurting for me
while they are hurting with me all along.
They love them too, and they sing
inside while I sing out so loud.
The words of my song remind them
of a world thats been turned upside down.
These words are my peace
as I sing with tears on my face.
I want him to see how much he hurt me.
I want him to hear how I sing
and hear the words of this song.
To hear me sing the words of this song.

"There is no use trying," said Alice; "one can't believe impossible things." "I dare say you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. "When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." Lewis Carroll
