If you look for me,
I will not be there.
If you call for me,
I will not answer.

Hold me to find I'm gone,
Wipe my tears
to find they're dry.

All the words I want to say,
pour from my eyes.
The rough, cold drops
redden my cheeks,
and sadden my heart.

My cries for help
echo through
the empty chambers
of my broken heart,
yet no one hears.
I reach out as I fall,
yet no one holds my hand,
so still I keep on falling.

If you look for me,
I will not be there.
If you call for me,
I will not answer.
Hold me to find I'm gone,
wipe my tears
to find they're dry.
Reach out for me,
to find I've fallen.

If you look for me,
I will not be there.
I will be here,
alone.

Nails embedded in my soul
clutched, hooked, and ripping
The fear has faded

Finding My Way

All of my life I have been all alone
Never finding a place to call home
Beaten and abused so many times
With nothing

THE WICKED WITCH OF TORNALEE
The wicked witch of Tornalee,

No love inside her can there be,
