wreaks havoc on my mind....
My body is scarred and mangled
My thoughts are marred and tangled
The pain, it grows
The strain, it shows
My spirit dwells not with angels

My self worth is small and haggard
My insides are beat and battered
Emotions are hidden
While hearts are frost bitten
My eyelids hang low and jagged

My pity is not for myself
My brain lies up on a shelf
I'm paralyzed
and hypnotized
My hands pour salt in my welts

Is there any more hope out there?
How much more can I bear?
I'm trying right now
Not to be dying somehow
I know help is out there somewhere
