fires ablaze within my eyes,
a smile concealing all my lies,
screaming, begging, calling out,
a final, frantic, desperate, shout.
scarlet tears drip from each vein,
a vehement covet to end this pain,
fires ablaze within my eyes,
a smile concealing all my lies,

my perception of self tainted by trauma caused by you
Words dont just hurt they leave scars that are hard to undo

I can no longer hide
My feelings even though I tried
Trying to resurrect The Girl
Who once died on the inside
Of me.
Looking in the mirror do you like what you see?
Is it everything you hoped for, everything you dreamed?
Do you too often look back with regrets,
Woman: an adult female human being.

I love myself, my immediate and little family of three.
Did I feel this way... at 21?
Was I ALREADY having this much fun?
Or... was I... actually... numb?
