Missing
I'm a beautiful disaster
Just glance into my eyes
They may seem light and easy at first
But stare really deep into them
I can show you pain
The hurt, the misery, the confusion they see
They show my imperfections, my faults, my flaws
They give you an inside look at my hurt and my fear
Now take a step back and look at my face
You can see my smile I paint on my face everyday
Gaze at my arms
They tell my story of hurt and abandonment better than I ever could
No matter how much I try to hide them
They are always there
Now look into my eyes again
You see what I see now
My flaws and imperfections
And you find out that the perfect thread you thought I was
Is frayed beyond repair at the end
