I stroll a winding path through the life i lead,
I enter and open garden and plant my lonley seed.

You see but a picture of the face that lies within,
So many see just the surface of whats benethe my skin.

I display a pretty smile to conceal the pain inside,
I sing a silent song to the soul that I hide.

Others see the sorrow masked across my face,
some even offer me a solacing embrace.

I strain my neck to keep my head held high,
I hold hostage my own soul within a well kept lie.

What you see as strenght and courage, I see only as life.
And when others offer me their pity, IT feels like a steel knife.

Is it not unique , my journey through I feel alone just the same,
When no one can remember me , will you remember my flame?

People always ask me why I don't look toward my future I tell them to many interesting things are happening today.
