Protecting

Love to wrap body of fear 
Fighting to believe reality  of tears
My world of truth numbing of pills 
Heating up my thoughts to grill 

Tattooing of skin to show the world 
The tales of pain mirror of life 
Believe to help to heal my scars
Hidden forever voice so far 

Puzzle lost piece no end to win
Stairs to climb the time of sin 
Stutter to find silence of scream 
Visions in grief was never a dream
