FINE

 FINE

I'M PERFECTLY FINE I SAY
AS I BANG MY HEAD ON THE FLOOR
AND BEAT THE WALL WITH BALLED UP FIST
BECAUSE I CAN'T FIND THE KEY TO THE DOOR

CAN YOU TELL ME WHICH ONE OF YOU
HAS TAKEN CONTROL OF MY MIND
WHO DARES TO STEP INTO MY THOUGHTS
ARE'NT YOU AFRAID OF WHAT YOU MIGHT FIND

IT'S NOT YOU WHO ARE BRAVE
TO TREAD ACROSS THE BORDERS OF MY HEART
IT IS I WHO MADE A PLACE FOR YOU
A SENTENCE YOU NEVER WILL PART

YOU WON'T BE JUST A VISITOR HERE
FOR I WILL WRITE YOUR NAME IN BLOOD
YOUR A STORY THAT WILL BE LONG FORGOTTEN
AFTER IVE BEEN COVERED UP BY YOUR MUD

THE ECHOS OF YOUR WORDS
WILL BE BLOWN TO KINGDOM COME
THEY WILL KNOW THAT CURSED YOU ARE
ALL THE WAY BACK TO WHERE YOU ARE FROM

"FINE"
What shall we allow others to see of us? This is a "fine" example of the fear that comes in wanting to hide our true insecurities or pain, or brokeness from others. Living and learning is not for the faint of heart. Sharing and being vulnerable does take caution but sometimes having a special freind who understands is needed.
Blessings,
Kathy

Words used and not said. Both can haunt us.
"THE ECHOS OF YOUR WORDS
