When My Heart Soars

By: Brayson Baylee Morson

Why did they stop me
While they let you go right by?
You had a smile on your face
As I sat to cry

Why did they break my heart
And leave yours whole?
As your smile got wider
They tore at my soul

Why are they making me love
No one but you?
As your smile turns wicked
I ask, what did I do?

Why do they like to feel my pain?
They think my heart
Is some kind of game

Why do they hurt me
While you're in a safety zone?
As your eyes are seeing nothing
I'm left broken and alone

Why do they make me feel crazy
While you're left feeling sane
Your eyes are blinded
Unknowing of my pain

Why did they stop me
And why did they let you go?
You're not seeing past your happiness
And my tears will never show

Why did they leave me
By myself to roam?
While you're already there
I won't find my way home

Why did they stop me
While they let you go right by?
As you glance down at me
You turn your head and sigh

As I see your hand
Reaching down
I take it in mine
And get off the ground

As we walk away together
My hand in yours
That will be the day
When my heart soars.
