Who am I in this place,
What should I try to be?
One thing I need to know,
Will anyone dare love me?
Confused I sit and stare afar,
No closer do I find.
An answer about myself,
I try to look in my mind.
I'm not happy with what I do,
So I leave and start a new.
But when I leave my home,
I find I only love you.
Nor happy now,
Nor happy then.
Nor do I hear it said,
"My dear I love you".
I look at myself sometimes,
Yet I find a wretched mess.
Look inside this trembling head,
Find what, I'll take a guess.
Who am I anyway?
Am I really what they say?
You'll see a picture,
Of a person I don't know.
What do I want from me?
Will anyone ever know.
What should I try to be?
Take a seat and enjoy the show.

I cannot imagine living
with a broken heart
every day we are together.
There has been no indication
that kindness will be
a part

The Mirror
When I look into the mirror
I don't know who it is I see
For the person looking through it
Couldn't possibly be me
I
by Ed Ostrom
O Lord I come to the place of victory,
Here at the Cross of Calvary I'm set free,
I'm set free through your suffering and
Here in this darkness
It's here I silently hide
While alone I sit in silence
I lose sight of all that's mine.
Trapped in this
Mirage
Floating through these dreams
Flowing through the river
I see a beautiful mirage
That holds me in refrain
Burning through
