A Hidden Soul

Who are you?

My veins are full of flowers

My heart is full of sun

My hands have touched a thousand ones

Yet my lips have brushed none

The smile in the darkness

Shies away at day

You only wish you could see

The facade that fades away

My petals are your favorite

But the roots are kept at bay

I only wish you'd want

The truth that's locked away

But wild branches scare you

When you walk out on a limb

So keep me in my box

If that's where I am to stay

And pray the loathed chaos

Is hidden far away
