Look into my eyes
And tell me what you see
Do you see a reckless girl
Or someone depressed at 14?
Do you dare see the tears
That spread across my skin?
Do you see all my losses
Or the very few I win?
If you dare touch my hand
Will you feel my softness
Or will you feel the calluses
From burns and feeling-less?
Do you see unflawed youth
Or do you see a broken child?
Do you see all my pain
Or do you see me just a wild?
Can you tell I'm screaming
Out for help I need?
Or am I just silenced of
The whistling wind without heed?
Look into these eyes
And peer into my soul
Tell me what do you see
Am I broken or am I whole?
