Outcast

I close my eyes
So I can see
I shut out my heart
I try to find me

Abandoned - Outcast
Untouchable fiend

The grass cuts
I try to step softly
But Each gash -
Reminds me

Life - Distributes pain - Pain has no favorites

The weight of my history
The mass of it
Unshakable - Unbreakable - Impenetrable

Fog

I know what I've done
I know where I've been
When this is all over
Will I still call you friend

Awake in the night
Like an owl or ghost
Waking to find
I am alone

Perhaps I'm mistaken
And I am its pet
Will I always be I limited
By the things I regret

Can I move beyond
Can I heal my own hurt
If only time can bring healing
Then what is my work

This is very raw and vulnerable which for me makes it very good.
