-Returning.-

A shrieking soul, begging to be heard
A shattered heart, begging to be fixed
Silly mistakes, wanting to be undone
Common regrets, wanting to be forgotten.

A throbbing mind, dealing with all of these
An aching brain, trying to make things right
Tired legs, wanting to give away
Weak knees, about to give out.

A little girl, against the whole world
A batch of tears, choked back with bleeding mascara
A weakened wrist, regaining its strength
An unheard voice, speaking up.

The truth, is finally being revealed
The smile, is finally real
The heart, is now duct taped and beating
The soul, is now being silenced.

A little girl, vanishing from her teenage angst
A teenage girl, forgetting her mistaken past
A mature girl, finally knowing what to do
The real Jenna, is now returning to you.
