BAGGAGE

Do I assume that you'll take me
Take me as I am?
I am flawed and hurting inside
Hurting inside with the thorns
The thorns of past encounters
Past encounters that I hoped
I hoped would be my happiness
My happiness was not found
Not found in eyes so cold
So cold and hands so rough
So rough I still have scars
Have scars that make one wonder
One wonder who you are
