For You

Withered smiles became her reflection
happiness drained from life
and like a drug
now addicted to the lies
a hurt broken heart
really has nothing to show

A woman filled with courage
strength on all sides
weathered hands marred
from the lies she held onto
but looking into her eyes
her walls begin to crumble
falling intoyour arms
confessing she's more than broken
kneeling on the floor bleeding
from fingertips and bruised knees

Blindfolded and misguided
putting the pieces of herself back together
only more and more
she distorts her image
trying again and again
breaking the mirror
though harder and harder it is
to figure out who she is

It hurts to watch her tears
bleeding from her eyes
Take her hand,
gently healing her past
trace your love onto her heart
Running your fingers through silver hair
love her
teach her
heal her
hold her
with on scarred hand to the other
send her ladybugs as i whisper
across the ocean
I love you and
I forgive you
I forgive you
