Scared Of Myself

by Heatha Ashlee   Mar 24, 2005


Its been days since I've looked in the mirror
Scared of seeing a failing reflection
Its been days since I've clearly looked forward
Scared of seeing the wrong direction

Who can I trust?
Who should I just leave alone?
I need a companion
Because I know I can't do this on my own

I cry more than I breathe
I smoke more than I sleep
The pain inside is burning up
My cuts run so deep

Where did things go so wrong?
When did I end up with nothing?
I need to get out and focus
I need motivation, I need something

Its been days since I've gotten dressed
Scared of getting myself worked up
Its been days since I talked to my friends
Scared of hearing enough is enough

So here I am right now
I don't know what to do
If you want to help me out
I dunno how your gonna get through!!

    another example of the genius inside heatha, totally impressive poem and a literary work of master level. i hope you know there is always someone here for you, even if they're not always on the next street over. beautiful poem, well written and freely flowin. each line continues perfectly unto the next, it all fits in synchronism 'in sync" i definitely enjoyed this piece of literature, and the progression and development not only it takes but you seem to make as the poem goes on verse for verse. outstanding.
