this is where it gets tough
this is where i break down and cry
i'm all i'll ever be
this is me
nothing more
nothing less
we're you expecting something better?
i'm all i'll ever be
a shell of a person
something i never wanted to be
i'm too scared to let myself show
afraid i might be jaded
aren't i already?
i see life through dark tinted glasses
do you still envy me?
i'm all i'll ever be
is it alright if i don't let my heart out
keep in in a shadow of glass
i'm not ready to let you see me
my scars are imprinted on me,
like a dove with a broken wing
you can't fix me
i'm all i'll ever be
do you still want to love me..

-inspired by the nelly furtado song
"try"

*sigh* it's all one should need or want;
just to be yourself, and have others accept you, maybe even *love* you

my scars are imprinted on me

Scars fade with time, we all have them to some degree. Enjoyed the thoughts.

No matter what scars or unfixable things we have.... there is ALWAYS still something unique and loveable about all of us!

A friend, like a candle, is most needed in the darkness.
