Before it's too late let me tell you now
There are times when I wanted to give up
To take the blade deeper beneath my scars and set myself free
The skin breaks apart as the lines of red begin to appear drop by drop
I feel the warmth and the strength as the cold steel is pulled away from me
It's time to move forward and into the warmth that you give me
The cold of my past is fading into the swirling mists of time
You are the one to keep me safe,
I am the one who can start to believe in a difference in a rebirth of my very soul
My eyes sparkle back to life as I stand taller
The strength returning to my broken and beaten existence
Bones crack within at every step as I learn to walk again
My ribs heal once more and protect me from breaking away and fading to nothing
The bruises around my eyes are merely there to remind me I am a fighter not a failure
I am back to being who I was once before but I am stronger through your torture
It is you who created this person, this new version of the fallen me
As my fist comes back and I break the mirror and watch the shards come falling down
I wipe away the red on the white
For it is my deep belief in living once more that keeps me going
I am the one who has taught myself to live to love and to never forget but to break free
