Maybe Never Maybe never, will they know the pain? Maybe never, will they feel the same? To be shut out but, yet, locked in A world that light has never seen Paranoid, deluded fear See twisted faces laugh or sneer Promises to darkness fade Dismissed, forgotten, never made Left behind to sit alone There’s nothing left when all are gone Clouds block out the summer’s day Smiles and joy soon washed away Tears and anguished screams withheld As shattered, another dream dispelled Fake empathy, shallow concern Like twisting knives in wounds they turn Fulfillment from advice they’re giving Redundant in the #life they’re living Still, how could they understand? When always on their feet they land Though some day, with tables turned They’ll see it true, a lesson learned Maybe sometime will they know the pain? Maybe sometime will they feel the same?
