Smiling, I weep

For the days I wish I could keep inside,

The inside of my brain to remember for eternity

Though if I try to find my way

I will be lost in the end

It’s so cold, so dark and cold.

A candle could never light

Its way through the long hallways

In the dark plain of my mind

Please away from me, fly away

To peace beyond the everlasting night

Though I could never say

How I long for you to stay

But please tell how much

I might have to pay,

For you to give me a backward glance

And to look within my mind

Though I could never ask you to do such a thing

For it would take years and years forevermore

To find me within the wires

Crossed and plugged in wrong

Maybe I could be good for something

Though my only option is gone.
