To Endure
My spine is made of steel And can endure The weight laid upon my shoulders My skin, on the other hand, Is paper thin Ripping with each harsh word I can endure Most things but Words from love ones can destroy -Kel Dayheart
Deeply Shallow
I have always thought I was as deep as The ocean Only recently, I have discovered that, That is false I am as shallow as A puddle On a barely rainy day -Kel Dayheart
Stagnant
I'm so afraid To move forward With failure lurking in my brain That I refuse to move Thinking, for some reason, That wasn't a failure in itself -Kel Dayheart
Paper Thin
I make love to the page But it is an unrequited love And I find no comfort Only paper cuts -Kel Dayheart

Worn Out
I'm tired Of this Thing we do Where all I do Is apologize And all you do I keep holding it Over my head Year after year -Kel Dayheart
True Colors
