In the Shadows

I'm just a girl Broken and tainted Survived by art Beauty and language One in the crowd A face in the bunch If I don't find my voice They'll have me for lunch Surviving in shadows Of the in between A repellent of light Tucked in my regime The sun being strength And rays a clear path My skin, a pure white The clouds, how they laugh
