Despite my scarred reflection
and all these shadows clinging to me
enveloped by misconception
and all i hoped to be
Despite these empty words
and all the false promises
Despite the murmurs of self-delusion
the comfort of an illusion
despite the desperation
of reaching beyond
of holding on
to your hand
of standing in the rain
of removing the traces
my heartfelt laceration
despite all the wounds
the ones i see
and those you cant
i still look up at the sky
scratching the surface of the drops that fall
despite these misgivings
and all you did to me
i still hold your hand
just in spite
despite of what i know
i look away
