Try and Find
I urge you to try and find
the scars that appear on a daily basis
the ones that hurt but can't be seen
the sticks and stones that don't hit me
allowed for words to pierce deep within
that cause you to underestimate
all the pain I'm in
a happy face but not a happy place
understand where they laid their hands
on the inside of my heart
where no one can restore
the carefree, pain free girl I was to start
