How strong
yet weak beneath
the thick skin
Every second every moment
trying to speak
Yearning to be heard
Hoping to be listened to
To be understood
pounding to prove a point
sketching letters to my desires
Giving out my best
In return scratches deep within
Crushed to pieces you stumble upon
Heartless on my heart
, Beneath the pieces i beat
, fast than before
To realise weak is strong and
Thick is my skin
