Doubt
I'm not in a proper state of mind.
I fear my sanity, I may never find.
Security lies within the heart.
I'm scared that mine is broken apart.
You may believe that I'm only depressed.
I'm afriad my feelings have too long been repressed.
I have a deep secret about my heart and love.
I'm worried it may get out; And what may strike me from above?
My emotions seem to keep gnawing at me.
I'm frightened that they might set themselves free.
I just don't know that anyone could understand.
I hope I'll find out before I reach the Promised Land.
