beneath my skin

life dealing with overcoming abuse and lack of self esteem.

beneath my skin
emptiness begins
scattered and shattered
broken deep within
wanting more out of life
happiness, true love's bliss
no more lonliness
that's full of discontent
I ache with dispair, I want to repair
bleeding through to the surface
a chill runs up and down my spine
thoughts in my mind always of you
changing my appearance hiding from myself
scars from the wounds that have broken me deep
no where to go I haven't anywhere to call home
my heart needs mending and I want to grow
I am so tired of running, always, from my shadow.
here, look beneath my skin.
