everyday i am among people talking, sharing, helping,laughing, chatting i wonder how many have ever seen behind my perfect mask an seen seen the scared woman who never looks in a mirror from believe how ugly she is not wanting a constant reminder of how imperfect god made me not wanting to relive the disappointment that i don't look like the "beautiful" women people will often tell me i have a good heart no one notices the scares on my shoulder from a heavy load deep lashes on each shoulder running down my back fresh and old wounds mixed together i am tired of the same struggle now i understand why honor for father and mother is obligated god knew why it should be a commandment the soul is resilliant bur respect, trust and love is not takes long to create, easy to brake
