Here I am for all to see
The shredded broken side of me
Pieces I have saved through time
I placed them here to make them mine
Don’t touch my heart, you’ll feel my pain
Of the hopes, the dreams, the childhood slain
Don’t reach for me, don’t dry my tears
Don’t get too close, you’ll know my fears
I’m trying hard to mend my soul
To help the child within me grow
To let her know the past is gone
We’re in the now where we belong
Please look beyond the broken glass
Beyond the tortured tear-filled past
Beyond the shattered life you see –
Look within ’til you find me
