Distant from everything I know
How will I shine? How will I glow?
If hurtfull things make us grow
Then I am a old woman
And it's my time to go
Sometimes the sunshine in my life can be seen
But during my storms I wonder are they dreams
I lean towards the light
In desperate need of safety
Sometimes in desperate woe
I ask the Lord to take me
Solice is the calm after my storms
And forever short that moment
A new me is born
Worn and tired
I tred through my tears
Close my eyes, open my heart
And ask strangers
To care
In a lesser form
I myself am fear
I scream to end exhaustion
Although my screams are faint
And although I'm not an artist
Then with my blood I paint
I paint the picture
Of Cherie with nothing at all wrong
And my acting always works
Because no one ever even blinks twice
Or looks to see the hurt.
