Woven (2006)


Woven together,
Hurt and Joy,
Tears and Laughter.
I'm not always Honest,
but I'm not always Pretending.
I'm not always Happy,
but I'm not always Sad.
I walk that line between living 
and dying.

If you wait a little longer,
you'll uncover the scars. 
I covered them the best I could,
and locked away the truth.
I wasn't always Invisible, 
In trying to make it through,
I got lost.

If you delve a little deeper,
You'll discover someone,
You didn't expect.
You'll see everything woven together,
with more Honesty,
and lots more Love.

But just stand back there,
and pretend you never saw.
"It's hard enough already."
Just treat me like a girl,
You passed on the street.
You don't have to love me;
but why not let yourself care?

I Laugh and Joke,
I Dance and Sing,
I Love and Care.
I Plan and Work,
I Talk and I Dream.
I'm not Poison,
and I'm not a Curse.
I'm just a girl,
With a little strand of everything 
Woven together.
