Heart Cry

Bravely and silently I carry my cross
Its heavy and hurts but I won't make a fuss
Individually we are all living
No one owes me anything

Deep down I hear the voice of my heart's cry
Demanding from life a reason why
Why good times seldom last
And I can't be free from my painful past

If I were to choose I will choose death
Never really had a swell time on earth
I stay out of fear of the fires of hell in eternity
As I struggle to maintain my sanity

Deep down I can feel my heart bleed
Ain't no one to confide in that will take heed
I just want peace,love and security in my struggle
And an end to the constant visits of trouble

My demands from life are not so much
A job to preserve my dignity and release me from lack's clutch
A trip to a near past to erase what I thought was love
The strength to carry on and into a new person evolve

I know God is love but I think sometimes He doesn't fancy me
I try but I can't like His other children be
Not as perfect as the number Seven
Still when I die,I plead for a little tent inside,by the gates of heaven

Deep down I know my heart is losing hope
Which is so vital to against this trials cope
I want to leave something to make life easy for my younger sister
I want to live independently and never be a bother

I don't know much but I know I am tired
I've done all that living a good life requires
Daily I look up into the sky
Hoping somehow,someday,someone will hear my heart's cry
