I'm not alright

I’m not alright

This much I can say

I’m not alright

These feelings won’t go away

 

Alone we’re born

Alone we die

But this much I can say

I, at least, have tried

 

My heart, my soul

A Pandora’s box

Was held shut tight

With infinite locks

 

But you, my dear

Effortlessly got inside

And left only hope

That, I can abide

 

Now you’re gone

Yet hope remains

Trying desperately to hide

The ever-growing stain

To take away the pain

I still am not the same

I am left in so much pain

And yet, hope still remains
