Becoming Whole

She wants nothing but
To be free
From the carnal shadows
That they seek

They stare back at her
In the mirror
Telling her what
She is not

From then on, she hides her heart
Giving them, what they want
Perfection, she knows does not exist



The price of silencing one's emptiness comes at losing sight
Of the person that was once inside

Who we are is defied by a world that we trust
It is you who must challenge it back

Find the strength to believe that the being within
Is more than, what appears, to be

She must find her own
Legs to stand
And say the things that were
Never said

To end the quest for
Validity
You must first learn to
Love yourself

The price of silencing one's emptiness comes at losing sight
Of the person that was once inside

Who we are is defied by a world that we trust
It is you who must challenge it back

Find the strength to believe that the being within
Is more than, what appears. . .

Who we are is defied by a world that we trust
It is you who must challenge it back

Find the strength to believe that the being within
Is more than, what appears, to be
