The Boy Inside The Man

I thought I could be somebody
I hoped I'd make my mark
I know now I am nobody
Lonely in the dark

No one else to hold my hand
None to say my name
No one here to be with me
No one I can blame

With whom can I share my thoughts?
Feelings go unsung
Emotions caged inside myself
Sanity unstrung

Crying quietly to myself
The only way I can
Hidden safely from the world
The boy inside the man
