Poem -

Of love letters written in tears 

that you are beautiful is written in the stars
even though the reflection you see is a portrait of scars 
every man you touched took a part of your soul 
but you-
you make me feel beautiful 

I've been running for so long I'm so far gone 
my feet heavy I long for home 
life handed me a loaded gun
the burdens of sins never undone
shooting holes in all that I ever loved
can you see;
how filthy I am
how filthy I am
how filthy I am

when I feel your hurt I bleed lives 
a piece of you they all take with sharp knives 
don't let me be another 
that makes you run for cover
surely everything I touch slowly dies 
but I don't have the strength to say my goodbyes 

instead I'll find my way to you 
before the tide of defeat breaks through
wipe your tears before they fall on earth 
let loose your wings--give you flight

you'll look behind my eyes 
into the dark where my demon lies

you make me feel beautiful
oh so beautiful.
