A Walk In My Shoes

by Sarah Mirabile   Mar 18, 2006


If you could take a walk in my shoes you would feel worthless almost as if life didn't have purpose,

you would care what others think and you'd always think you had to prove something,

I've never considered my self a victim but these scars of verbal abuse aren't nothing,

the scars don't heal deep within you and you always feel one step back, you'd also strive for perfection,

you'd look to others for inspiration and motivation,

after you hear something long enough you start to believe it even though you hate to feel that way,

you start to realize that no matter how long you Live the scars will always stay,

but you may come out stronger and realize that you must have a purpose if you are taking up space in this world,

I may be a victim of verbal abuse but in the end, I may be stronger and even though these scars won't heal, it's OK because I know deep inside me I can win this game in the end by being my own best friend --- If you walk in my shoes this might be how you would feel.
