Just a Little Broken

My life right now I can't explain
It feels like I'm dying but with no pain
It's all just a little bit broken

I get called names that only hurt me
When will I just be set free?
It's all just a little bit broken

Can't they see my cuts, so fresh and so deep?
Or will I have to keep it a secret and never make a peep?
It's all just a little bit broken

Can't they see I'm dying a little more each day?
When will they take the time to see if I'm ok?
It's all just a little bit broken

So many lies I don't wanna hear!
Don't you understand? I don't wanna cry another single tear!
It's all just a little bit broken

I Cry myself to sleep Each and everynight
When will everything be alright?
It's all just a little bit broken

I take a piece of paper and write with a pen
"i just wanna be strong again"
It's all just a little bit broken

So please the next time when you judge me
Maybe you'll see,
It's all just a little bit broken...

The thing to do hon is to see any insult, any onslaught as an attack against your fort. What will you do? Lie down and say, "come and get me, I'm yours for the taking!" Heck no! You brace yourself, stand in the ready and prepare to defend your fort - your fortitude. How do you defend against YOURSELF? Shake it off, move your mind to another area, channel it!! It's what I do. All sorts of stuff just rolls right off my back. Focus more on beauty; its out there, you know! Look up! Patty
