Inner Turmoil
Inner Turmoil
By Aubrionna Nicole Gorden
I am the ghost of could be past
I am the love that never last
I am the tear drop and the cries
I am the shame he feels inside
Who am I?
How could you ask?
I am titanium masked as glass
The one you all thought you could break
The one you blame for your mistakes
I am the one who's always there
Even though you cause me the most despair
I am the shame she feels inside
Won't be the one to run and hide
Who am I?
Is my soul gone?
I am the nights spent all alone
I am the house without a home
I am the king without a thrown
I am the whisper in the night
That says you’ll always be my knight
Who am I to really judge?
What is and isn’t truly love
I see the wounds inside your eyes
I see you fighting not to cry
There you are looking up to me
With different possibilities
I see regret but it's too late
There's no cure for past mistakes
Can't I prevent your demise?
Only Im left to decide
Who am I?
