The shame covers my face
Regret building in my chest
I'm feeling weak
Tears race down my face
I try to close my eyes
Pretend I was dreaming
But this is reality
A fighting
That never ends
I try so hard
Everyday to ensure
That I don't make the mistakes I've made
And when I show weakness
I hurt
Not from the shame the world gives
From the amounting shame in my chest
Because I let myself down
For one smile
One moment of freedom
And it simply feels
Like with each wrong
I'm starting all over
With yet another missing piece of myself.
