Is see her standing over there,
looking in the mirror
comparing herself to others.
She's hating herself,
because she doesnt have,
the beautiful ballet-arms,
or the widest gap,
between her thighs.
I never noticed,
how skinny she was,
until now.
I could almost,
see right through her.
Every time she concentrated more,
on perfectioning her dance,
you could see the layer of insecurity,
covering her capabilities.
She's passionate,
and has talent.
But she doesn't believe it.
And in her head,
she never will.

It was nothing but a blur
Amidst the insecurities of life
Hasty decisions
Jumping to conclusions
Hiding blemishes
Closing Gaps
In between
Broken roads
Perfectioning one another's flaws
Letting go
Only one thing holding it all together
The rope
c-u-t

No longer held by a ~~thread
Falling down
Way down
A bottomless pit
Down the road
Reading signs of betrayal
Soaked
In confusion and despair
Finding
Strength to be cleansed once again
In a land
Drastically dry
Dead-unchanging
From lack of conviction and repentance
Dying to the world instead of the word.
