I Am From

I am from where heartache hides in shaddows, From lonliness that seems to be my only comfort. I am from where getting close to someone gets you hurt, From where all the events in my life make me feel like dirt. I am from wehre my pain is hard to hide, From looking into anothers face and knowing what I'll find. I am from a troubled past that always seems to haunt me, From dreams and nightmares that always taunt me. I am from a family that tells me its ok, From a place where the people I love always walk away. I am from a life that doesn't seem so bad, From thoughts of why the universe wants to see me sad. I am from a darkness that cuts me to the core, From a place where people always kick me to the floor. I am from a trusting background, but I won't trust no more, From people who I thought I trusted walked right out the door. I am from where everything gets better with time, From where falling in love isn't a crime.
