Skin of black and blue,
feeling torn in two.
Being afraid and scared,
feeling like no one ever cared.
Go outside and feel the breeze,
feel the wind tickle your two knees.
Feel the life inside your chest,
lay your tears down, and let your head rest.
Dream of colors big and bright,
take a deep breath and say goodnight.
Plaster a smile on your face,
leave the fake one on that no one can trace.
Then once your home go to your room
as all the things "they" said in your head zoom.
Close your eyes and breathe deeply,
put in positive thoughts kindly and neatly.
Allow them to take over your mind,
let them show what they can find.
Showing you old memories,
showing you the person you used to be.
~K.H.
