I wish you could see

the scars on my heart.

I wish you could see the memories

that replay in my head.

I wish you could feel

the heartbreak that I’ve felt

And then maybe….

you’d understand.

I wish you could of seen me

when I was only 5

then you’d understand

why there’s just days I wanna cry.

I wish you could feel

the pain of my past

then you’d realize

why I desire love that will last.

I wish you really knew me

and could see my fragile heart

at the end of the day

I’m just another broken person

who constantly needs a fresh start.

I found a God who loves me

who picks me up off the ground

who didn’t come to judge me

or leave me broken and bound.

I wish you could see

the scars on my heart.

I wish you could see the memories

that replay in my head.

I wish you could feel

the heartbreak of my past

And then maybe….

you’d finally understand.
