With eyes that reflect all the serenity of the forests

And hair that shines with all the brilliance of an ever-clear sky

Oh sweet love to whom I have given the whole of my heart

The scars you bear

Oh, those sorrows deep that have bound your own heart to you

Those painful chains of self-hate and blame

That have grown spikes of regret over the years

That tear and rip at your very soul

Oh love, why do you refuse to let go so strongly?

You cling to your pain and hate

And use it to push all others away

Why, dear heart?

Why do you wear your mask and convince everyone that nothing is wrong

All the while isolating yourself amongst a group of friends

Of brothers really

It is such a lonely existence that you continuously commit yourself too

You who so carefully lead others from the shadows

Seem so loathed to be led yourself

Though your soul cries out often to your god and protector

You ask for help yet seem reluctant to receive it

Why must you push help away?

Why must you push me away?

Oh my love, why can you not see just how much it pains me

To know of your anguish and be unable to help you

Oh dear sweet heart why must you continue to suffer?

Why?
