Take a look and see the scowl
I mean the frown behind the smile
The angry flash behind the eyes
They only see the outer charm
never seen the inner man
I am the calm before the storm
Lava flowing underground
Angry heart within my core
Pounding like the hammer of Thor
judged and scorned at every turn
I am misunderstood, but that's the norm
I swallow pride and endure
Place my faith and trust in God
Dedicate my energies to his challenging work
Trying to keep an open mind
Wondering why I'm so misjudged
The answer comes, it’s a simple thought
quotes recalled from a writer’s words
“I think like a genius, write like a distinguished author but speak like a child.”

Lost
Can you feel her. Can you see her dreams. She is wrapped up in a torrent of emotion. Her world ripping at the seems. Can you hear her. Can you read her mind.

Just cause...
All I can do is cry. With nothing to console. Nothing else to say. Just letting tears fall. The memories are painful. And I wish to vanish them. But nothing happens. It's just me hoping.

There's Only So Far:
There's only so far I'm willing to go. Only so much weight I'm willing to throw. So much space for me left to grow. So much time spent not high, but low. There's only so long I'm willing to wait.
