Extrapolation
Silhoutte of my soul,
This outline, with edges
trying their best
To focus and become clear.
This projection,
That Hope helps to light
I give to you in my words,
Struggling to show you
Upon the screen of my emotions,
Yearning for you to see....
To grasp the understanding....
Of who I am.
With face hidden from view
To hide the shame of my weaknesses,
As this darkness that surrounds
Houses my deep loneliness.
And the tears flicker
In the glow of the ghost
That dances with my name.
This outline, with edges
trying their best
To focus and become clear.
This projection,
That Hope helps to light
I give to you in my words,
Struggling to show you
Upon the screen of my emotions,
Yearning for you to see....
To grasp the understanding....
Of who I am.
With face hidden from view
To hide the shame of my weaknesses,
As this darkness that surrounds
Houses my deep loneliness.
And the tears flicker
In the glow of the ghost
That dances with my name.
