I was always the girl on the outsideNever finding a place to fit inLiving my life in the shadowsTo loneliness, I was akin I’ve had friends here and thereBut they never seemed to stayI guess I wasn’t good enoughSo, they all went on their way Over the years I’ve built a wallAnd it takes a… Continue reading I Must Confess

I am a lost soul searchingA top spinning out of control I have tears that can’t escapeThey refuse to scale this wall I have a heart made of paperMy shattered soul of glass I have so much to sayBut words bite me in the ass I have love in my heartAnd that’s where it stays… Continue reading I Am

I laugh when inside the tears are flowing.I smile when my soul wears a frown.Outwardly I look happy and peaceful;Inwardly, the war rages. I try when I know I will fail.I live, though I want to die.I seem to have it all together;Looks sure are deceiving. I feel the need to front when I want… Continue reading How?

Like a child afraid in the night,I am crying for the light.Needing to see what lies ahead,Clouds of fear invade my head. Father, take these fears from me,Oh, how I long to finally be free.I need Your help, for I am weak,You and You alone are all I seek. Safe in your arms is where I’ll stay,Knowing my fears will melt away.Feeling Your presence… Continue reading Free Me

Why is it so hard for me to forgive myself,Put the wrong I have done upon the shelf?Will I let this hang over me all of my days,Despising myself in so many ways? Walking through life like it’s all good,My heart  being so misunderstood.How can I get rid of the way I feel?Some days I don’t… Continue reading Forgiveness

All my life I have seenRejection all around.No matter where I am,It seems to abound. Sometimes it seems;It’s more than I can bear.Will I ever be good enoughOr does anyone even care? I feel so afraid to do anything,Because I might be rejected.Too scared to say what I want,Fearful it may be objected. I need to learn; it matters… Continue reading   Fear of Rejection
