Afraid

by Jasmyn   Jul 14, 2006


Sitting all alone
underneath a tree
praying to any who listen
thats no one notices me
i ran away from home
or thats what they call it
i needed to get away
from all the pain and bulls h i t
I have bruises from recent battles
scars that wont fade
but thats only part of the reason
I'm sitting here afraid
there are deeper scars
that i cant erase
memories i try to lose
memories i deface
i have demons
no one can understand
dreams that one day ill be saved
someone will take my hand
fears that only i truly know
wanting to be rid of them
but i cant seem to let them go
mistrust and misfortune
makes to tell
just where Ive been
i know that they're looking
but i cant go back there
to the lies they tell to others
when they say they truly care
i cover my wounds
underneath a deep facade
because they can never know
how purely I'm afraid
