Charcoal

Blood stained
Stripped of my name 
Ridiculed because of my hair
Told that I don't belong here
So why would I stay
They plan to kill me either way
why wouldn't I run
I have the slightest chance if I escape 
No more fear 
Here I go.

No half ways

No half ways

Because my soul won't allow me to "half do" anything, half love is foreign to me.

Because I love you

Know thy self

Know thy self

You don't understand this heart that I have

Not even I understand it

I give when I don't...
