somebody to love

I have ridden the ride i have ridden the ride only a few times and now i must hide. Visible to me, but hidden to you The visibility is quite cruel and i wish it were untrue Always hidden to you Forever and ever hidden to you It hurts when you know its true Even more so when you know there is nothing you can do No one but myself to blame Now i must be hidden, over flowed with shame I seek a new name after i have invited this shame to stain my name There is far to much pain in this present game to find my new name Only time will heal with emotions opposite of steel. Hopes for one day i will not feel like half a man It would mean the world to me if you held or even touched my hand in this self earned darkness with confusion and bland No motivation just intense hesitation with an uninvited side of regretful frustration. One day i will again breathe and be visible, clear, and easy to see....
