I can see their faces, laughing at me.
The way I look, dress, and act... who I am.
They enter me, break down my walls,
Hurt me unbearably, destroy my very being.
They change my ways, and then I feel no pain.
I become what they want, I know not who I am.
I no longer exist, I am what they created.
But, there is still time, I can find myself.
I will rebuild my walls, rediscover myself.
I'll move on, be myself, and not fall again.
Life is but a race, we are all athletes.
God helps us, walks with us, carries us.
We are strong, and He will never let us lose.
When I look at the sky, clear and blue,
I see what all He has given me.
The joy and the pain that is who I am.
When there are clouds in the heavens,
I really see angels,
Letting me know God is there for me.
Very good poe, touching. I've been in this place Amber describes many times.
