Agony Within

I locked myself away today So no one else sees the pain And bash my head against the wall To halt the voices in my brain I smash the smirk within the mirror But theres still laughter in the air My knuckles cut from broken glass But Im just lost in a stagnant stare. People cant see inside these four walls Once i shut the doors to the world outside They dont hear the screams at shadows They cant see the closets where i hide. Tears rain down my withered face But cant wash away the scars and pain I want to rip my heart from me And place it where it will never feel again I cry out for Gods grace and mercy If he has some put aside for me Come heal this broken heart and mind And set my broken spirit free.

God's grace is amazing! Many people doubt their worth, but your value is not based on anything you are or can do, but the blood offering He has given out of love for you. Let Him be your comfort through the Psalms. Poetic hugs, Juliet.
