Broken, exposed...
in front of the mirror...

Relationships end,
It's only a matter of time...

We've talked about all the daddy's
that have left their family's side...

Look at yourself-
Where is your pride...

This skin of mine,
When touched, may be found...

You and I,
We've both made mistakes...

Myself, I am forgotten
I'm only loved so long...

If suffering were just,
You would know how I felt...

I see these ashes
That the children play in...

I wrote this for a friend who endured far too much...

I went to church last Sunday
To get my donuts and coffee...
