Inner Fight
I can see it in your hazel eyes
Untold secrets, silent truth
Despicable face, full of lies
Words that now only seem to soothe
You easily won my love
A love that burns underneath my skin
A love that I wish to be intolerant of
A love like a war that reminds me of how deceived I’ve been
Oh how well you knew to play your part
Like a siren capturing my glance
Caressing deeply my heart
I pray for you to return to this game of chance
Please love, become my guiding light
I’m blind, struggling in this inner fight.
