Please, dig deep...
I need you to see. To realize I need this.
I need you to pull back slowly the skin of my shallow words,
to wrench away the pathetic muscles of my high-strung pride
Crack, crush and fracture the bones that obstruct your path to the truths that lie in my soul.
Tear away my body so you can see clearly what you need to see of me and then help me to change.
Build me back.
Replace my broken bones with the strong warm ones,
the ones that are transparent so that all can see through.
Layer back my muscle strong and true.
Please.
I need this.
Help me to replace my meek words with the ones that do not just please others out of fear.
I keep waiting for a person to... fix this feeling that I have but, rereading the poem over and over again... :/ I think its a poem to myself

I've been through to what is starting to look suspiciously like the other side of that feeling... I'd bet my face it is probably actually to yourself. And you can do it! <3
