Ribbons

When I entered the doorway
I was lost for a second in the pouring rain
But then I sorted it all out, what was my intention
I needed to forgive you

I had nothing to hide
I faced the flame and tried to let my inner guide me

But I would have to let it all go, never understanding why (I was)

Wrapped in bandages protecting myself from the outside
Cutting one by one ribbons in a ceremony for myself

When I centered the negative space
I Got clear all the sudden from waiting in vain
Was I not good enough, was I feeling off key, was I trying to hard
Did I really know why I felt so dead inside, I was in denial
Beauty is only skin deep
I will feel this creeping unless I decide, I will feel this creeping
