because they tore us apart
we had staples in our heart to put it together
they where sharp and cut our skin
and the soles of our shoes are worn out
because we had to run from the fear
that they would take us to the highest point
just to push us to the deepest layers of hell
we had to put a metal shelter around our bodies
to keep them from pulling us apart limb from limb
and when they take our stomics out because they don't like our bodies
they took our hearts because they didn't like our emotions
our minds because we didn't think like they did
and our face
they rearranged it with make up and hidden scares
bags under our eyes because of the sleepless nights when we would cry until four in the morning
and the broken moments we would have to clean up
all alone in a dark circle with an endless pit that would tighten around us
until the day they let us free
we will drown in the thought that we are not worthy of who they are
