Someone to Love

The world is made of quicksand

swallowing me up a bit more each day

I reach up hoping for a helping hand

but all I find are faces that betray

I've searched long for an answer

and I lived through their lies

but I wont live forever

and I will never grow wise

even when I'm on the other side

you'll always be in my broken mind

in secrets and memories that I hide

that I hold dear and divine.

The world has never been kind

but I keep a smile on my face

sometimes it's hard to find

amidst the world's disgrace

But hope is the last to die

and for as long as I live

and have strength in my sigh

my heart I will always give

to the one I can't seem to find

to the one I always dreamed of

someone that I can call mine,

someone that I can love...
