Puttin myself out there

by nerdgirl

For far too long I kept it all inside
my way of dealing with emotions was to hide
I know its not right and far from smart
but at that time, I didnt even know where to start
my childhood, molested, drinking and smoking
at a way to early age, or my adulthood...
a marriage that failed, my kitchen
where I was raped.....
I didnt know what to do so I chose to escape

You never know who comes into your life
they could be a friend, lover, husband or wife
not too long ago, I was lost and confused
I had nothing, not even my muse

This is me, broken and scarred
still healing; but I think I can do it
Im up for the task, Im off to a good start
I took off my mask



( For almost 2 years noone could get to me. They tried to jump my wall but they couldnt. How can you get in when you dont see the real person? They knew Im loud and honest and fun; but they never saw the me that was hurt. Somehow one person managed to see behind the mask AND jump the wall.... I love him to death for that. )
