A pain
with no gain
where only sorrow will remain
that's tried to be corrected but failed in vain.
It'll leave me confused and possibly insane
and mentally scarred because of all of the pain.
The only hope given
is that I will be forgiven,
for the life I live in
and the attempts I've tried.
What must I do
to show I'm still true to you.
What is it that you would like me to be?
the perfect vision of a friend for all to see
or am I that bad that I can never be me.
Shall I be enslaved to your idea that my true self can never be free?
Shall I hide my true self away and lock it away with your emotional
key?
Or can I be myself for the world to see.
