Miss Me
Hearts struggle to crawl its way out of the darkness
Darkness buried underneath past pain, hate, and confusion
Confusion mixed with filth and fear
Fear that instigates sadness
Sadness that has a death grip wrapped around fragile trampled souls
Souls that were misunderstood
Misunderstanding viewed as weakness
The weakness that consumes the body
Bodies shattered to pieces by the tiniest words laced with hate
Hatred that runs deeper than we can endure
But we endure and plaster a sincere smile on our busied faces
Faces beaten by those who misunderstand
The misunderstood cast eyes down so no one can see into the soul and see the damage
Damage down each day by whispered lies told to the heart
Hearts convinced that no one can see our dark hearts through our transparent skin
Skin that desperately try to hide the blackness that runs through our veins
Veins full of agony and revenge
Revenge toward those who misunderstand
Misunderstand that when we look in the mirror we see what we have become
Becoming a coward brings a feeling of being inadequate
Inadequate compared to those who can endure
Endure the hatred and abuse
Abuse caused by other insecurity
Insecurity caused by hate, disappointment, and loathing
Loathing effecting the misunderstood
The misunderstood that are going to be free
Free of the filth and pain
Pain that will be replace with hope
Hope that those who misunderstand will understand
Understand that breaking ones soul will not mend another
Another soul broken by the abuse
Abuse that is a never ending cycle
Cycle that can be broken by detaching
Detaching from judging the misconstrue
The misconstrue that will purge the darkness
Darkness within the heart.
