My shattered life is lost in tears.
I can't dream away unimagined fears.

I'm falling apart underneath my skin.
My heart is raw and bleeding within.

You struck me when I was down.
I was just a kid you could blame.
I have carried all your shame.

Come into my mind feel my pain.
No childish dreams remain.
I some how stayed sane through all the pain.

The child inside me is gone,
too afraid to carry on.

I'm suffacating, but I am still alive.
To afraid to live, to afraid to die.

I close my eyes as my life goes by.
And wonder why?

Yes,
Jenn I have asked them why. The person's answer was because I was born.

the children inside die younger everyday.
i know the place you live in.
it doesn't ever get better. but you have to convince yourself it does.
if you want to go on.

  I'm glad that you are attempting to excorsize this. Writing does help, and writing this well may help others.
Well done.
