I had to unravel I had to break down piece by ******* piece Tear down those rigid walls Forgo those tight knit bridges And plummet into my own abyss Wake up unrecognizable Welcome the hatred for the person id become Feel the terror of being outside myself Bare, raw, uncut Against all my moral beliefs I created this tormented shell of a woman And demanding of her what I could not demand of myself Bone dry honesty And I got, I ******* got it It tore the earth from my feet The foundation I had relied on And being someone else, I saw me In true form Who I once was, and I was enlightened She was strong and proud Honest and unwavering I admired her courage But I am no longer her Now, in my pit My rock ******* bottom I know who I was Who I can be again And the smallest glimmer of hope shines through The self-hatred and hopelessness I will get back to you
