Inside & Out
Bright and cherry, not cold and dreary
Holds me close and doesn’t piss me off
Kind to friends as well as animal
Cares and protects but isn’t obsessive
Just a few things I look for…
Understands and has patience
Listens and doesn’t speak over
Calms and doesn’t hurt me
Lets me look as I wish to look
Just some things I search for…
Past is the past
Family history is it’s own not mine
Shows peace and not hate
Lets me have my time
Just things I hope for…
Keeps things at a slow rate
Keeps me smiling even when I’m sad
Enjoys little things that matter to me
Shows care for what I do and myself
Just things I wish for…
Keeps a plan for the days ahead
Isn’t a drug addict
Won’t hurt or hit me
Won’t screw with my head
Just things I’d die for…
Too many things have gone wrong
Far too much will still be torn
Keep waiting for healing
Keep searching for peace
Just things I might’ve found…
