A Lonely Heart

I smile so sweetly,
I laugh so easily,
But look carefully,
Look into my eyes.

Can you see it?
They say your eyes are the windows to your soul
Well my soul bares it all
The emptiness
The loneliness

Can you feel it?
I have a heart that is lonely
You walk past not a second glance
My heart breaks
My heart aches

Wherever I go, whatever I do
The pain is there
When I feel it coming on,
The emptiness, the loneliness
Who do I call, who will listen?

Prayers unanswered,
Words unspoken
The pain is trapped
The ache is captured
Who will free me?

There you go,
Walk on by.
As I sit and watch you go
As quiet as a mouse you say
But why you ask?

You made me this way.
You all talk
And I listen
I don’t utter a word because
I have a lonely heart...
