Past Me

In this body
There is a man
Scarred and unsure
The wounds 
A lifetime of battles
Within my self
These eyes so tired
This heart so ravaged 
My soul stolen
Cut done by insecurity
Week in the knees
Can barely stand
Want to breakdown
Don't need it to hide nomore
Need it all gone
Want to say goodbye forevermore 
The words I remember
The actions I can barely speak of
The times of regret
The decisions made
Time I need to heal it all
To move away from my norm
To branch outside this bubble 
Capitavate the world with who I could be
But i can not get out of my own way
It could all be just inches away
All I wish to be
If I could just get past me.
