mind, heart, and soul

I gave my heart to the people
They said it wasn't enough
I proposed that I give them my mind too
They told me it's not something they trust
I shared with them my soul, the most precious I own
They couldn't be bothered to say no
I racked my brain and looked into my soul and felt what my heart had to feel
I looked back on my past
Where do my issues contrast with the glory of our existence?
Now there's so much resistance
Nothing can fix this
I need to accept and move forward
But I'm frozen by the coldness of ones I once loved
And I'm too lazy to knit my own gloves
I admit to you my heart moves like a whore
But your warmth has filled me before
A fire calming my war,
Your strength helped me reform
But a few moments later I realized the danger 
And felt scared of what we had shared
My mind often doubted you cared
I've been having these nightmares
And you're at the center of them
A dozen disappointed faces
Looking away and turning to grin
I awake to a feeling so grim
I'm aware that my soul's like the tide 
My whole world despises what's inside
It doesn't matter that I'm trying to try
I wonder if integrity's a lie
I think about when I might die
If it doesn't matter then what does it matter if I go in time, or within the hour 
I don't mean to worry, I'm in no hurry, but my mind, heart, and soul have gone sour
