exposed naked skin, she peels back her flesh to show the shadows within,
to only sit and stare as she shares her hurt and pain,
to bury the knife and refrain from this ordinary life,
to give up all accomplishd and leave your world for mine,
i tend to shed light into darkened mind,
like frozen ice underneath life you'll find,
sewn up and bandaged properly all in due time,
shadows hold secrets that should be left for me to find...
