Some years ago I was constantly wearing Rose-tinted shades I started hurting myself with words that cut deep like blades At the same time as receiving poor grades I was unaware and oblivious to what was going on I used to treat life as though it was a movie and enjoy whilst eating popcorn This was before the mental trauma and pain The pain that locked me up in a tight chain Giving me thoughts about whether I was sane That misery was originally keeping me astray The strain and torment created a perfect pathway Impacting on the strong woman I have become today
