in this skin
older than this
house i grew up in
please tell me i will
get beyond this place
that i will become
something so much more
this skin is full of doubt
hidden hurt
regretful hatred
damaged skin
bones shattered inside
trying to put myself back together
so much ahead of me
impossible to know who i am
enough to know
what the hell i am to do
with my life
i just know i want more
burried in roots
wanting wings
needing to fly
