Array ( [sid] => 98850 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Scarred [time] => 2005-06-21 16:10:02 [hometext] => Please tell me what you think of this. [bodytext] => I was an angel with a light
illuminating my presence, but
now my wings are clipped
and I’m grounded
I’ve sinned. Marked by dirt.
Soiled and stained by the world.
Scarred by the red cuts on my wrists.
I’m lost and waiting for you to come save
me, but it seems you want me to stay
As all my hopes waste away
it becomes clear
I am not one of you anymore.
You beautiful people,
Smiles on your faces
no disgrace and no tears
are found on your faces
You don’t understand me
You are too perfect to perceive
the way I feel
You can only give love that has no feeling
You can not sympathize
You have never been here
You can’t help until you’ve seen with your own eyes
Seen the way it is and how it feels
You exclude me because I am bad
You can’t be friends with the likes of me
I scare your parents and have a bad reputation
It comes with me. Honestly I don’t approve of deception.
So I deal with the truth. Why can’t you?
I have messed up. It is no lie. I won’t deny.
Can’t you see past that?
If you are such a good person, you can help me.
Unless you have already judged me in you heart.
If so, I will take no part of what you can offer,
because all you offer is charity
I will not take charity
I will not lose my dignity
When it seems I have nothing to lose, there is always my dignity
I am not a very proud person, just I don’t like to be judged
Scarred is what I am, but not who I am
I messed up once. So what?
I can stand up and try again.
I will not be ashamed
for I have been forgiven.
Now, can you forgive me too?
