Quiet Girl
2002 0415
-------------

to cushion child as she falls
they save the fully grown
"Won't you let me in the door
or just leave me alone?"

your imperfections mock your best
attempts at living free
"collect my failings in a jar
and blame them all on me."

companions can't always console
the lonely battle fought
gather your strength to stand against
the harshest winds of thought

collapsing as the quiet girl
who doesn't want to cry
listen with your darkest heart
to hear the hidden lie
