Bruises

Bruises By: IzaDonna Surrounded by darkness Emotions hidden away Bruises disguised with smiles Never would think it That my past still haunts me The scars still completely cover me I hide them so you can't see I'm really not at all okay Chorus The bottles eases the pain The dust numbs the ache Can I ever just forgive? Instead up building up this hate I just want to find peace I want my smile to be real But its hard to do so When I can no longer seem to feel Frightening dreams keep me awake Forever replaying in my mind Life seems to be so much longer This winding road so much harder Can I just get a release Beat these inner demons and be free Or do I have to be forever cursed With the ghosts of the past Chorus I look up at the stars And close my eyes tight Its time for last good-byes Its time to end this tonight I take one last chug And fall to the ground Take one last gasp And then no longer make a sound Chorus I'm finally okay

WOW! So sad....so very sad. We all carry baggage of some sort, and I know I've been on the edge often...but despite the pain there is beauty. Thanks for sharing this.
