Everything is always more than just skin deep..
Who i am, is more than just the depth of my skin.
Who i am is implanted in my DNA.
Sink deep into my skin, touch my soul, catch a glimpse of what my world is like.
You couldn't last a day in my mind.
My brain ticks like clockwork, always going, always thinking... always digging
Have you ever met a person like me?
Ha, i doubt it.
Let me introduce myself.
i am anxiety, i am depression, i am anger, i am sadness, i am hurt, i am tired.
i have lost who i once was, and i can't seem to get her back...
2011... nothing could have prepared me for 2011...
i was young, stupid, thought life was forever.
Until the Higher Power decided to take my heart and soul.
He took the purest soul, the sweetest heart..
He took, Granddaddy.
Granddaddy, i wish you were still here.
But i will not be selfish, no more pain, no more suffering.
You're at peace, with Gran, the sweet woman i never got to meet, Higher Power took her from me at just 2 months old...
You see it's more than just my skin.
Look deep into my eyes and feel what i feel.
Go deeper than my skin, feel my bones.
Touch my soul, let me breathe.
Do you see these scars, which lye upon my arms?
Each one, has a meaning.
Each one for the people i have lost, the people who have hurt me, the people i have hurt.
i cut deep into my skin, to release the internal pain.
Skin deep... deeper i go...
