What makes me the person that I am?
What makes me hate myself
in ways you'll never know?
I don't know what I want
And I don't know what to feel
I am scared to go on in this life
I don't want to hurt you
But I am afraid that I already have
Please forgive me
for all that I've been
And maybe one day
I'll realize who I truly am
But until that day
I'll struggle along in silence
Hoping and praying
that my world won't fall
to a self-inflicted end
And I finally begin to realize
that I mean something to someone
And that I need you
to help me get through this life
Because I don't have the strength
to face this world alone

Sara,
Wonderful, touching words.  I know what you mean, as I have felt this too.
Haven't we all at some point?
