Take My Hand

Silent anger that keeps you at a distance
Don't let it take you over
I'm screaming at the top of my lungs
My voice is raspy from the loss
Now let me look into your eyes
Please mirror mirror what do you see?
The reflection of the lost and hopeless
I'm reaching out for your touch
Sitting here in my shame and guilt

Like a cloak it hangs on my shoulders
An aura of black whispers, clouding my vision
IF you seen my face you'd turn away in disgust
Just pulling over the blindfold
Shelter yourself from my secrets
Don't let me get you
A slip of the tongue and now you're cut

Just take those familiar lines
Now hidden from your view
Braille that speaks of the deepest part of me
The truth and nothing but the lies that keep me
Surrounding, embracing, caressing my existence
I'll be wearing white
