I am me...
Cannot you ever see?
That I am not a character,
From one of your many books.
************************************
You took a piece of clay...
to mold it you knew not how.
You made a statue,
but you gave no thought of how...
to put feeling into the clay.
************************************
Your thoughts and feelings...
your ideas and desires.
These were all you gave to be.
That is what was important to you.
************************************
But could you never see?
That this statue was not of cold clay?
I was real, with a heart,
a mind and a few ideals of my own
************************************
I cannot give up everything I was,
just to be what you think you want.
So now you no longer want,
that which you have created.
All I can do is sit here alone.
************************************
You are searching,
for someone or something.
That cannot be, yet you cannot see.
That I am just me.

~*~ Can't You Hear My Cries~*~
Are you satisfied...
Do you know what you have done...
Are you blind to my tears...
Do you think I can continue...
To live this way...
What do you think and…...
What do you say…...
************************************
I am sitting here alone..
I listen to the radio...
And I hear the songs they sing...
Of cheating, unhappiness and heartbreak...
I look out of the window...
And see the clouds and rain...
And I fell the gloom of a...
Cold dull gray morning yet once again...
************************************
The chill of the day...
Cannot compare to the...
Chill which resides within my heart...
Of a love gone cold...
Or the ache of a tired body...
Grown useless and old...
************************************
But you will not look...
Or will not care...
To see the tears I cry...
And choose to listen with deaf ears...
Oh can't you hear my Cries...
