Stuck in stupid ugly darkness

Can't move

Can't breathe

Stretching my arms, but there's no way out

Stuck in a shirt with no arms

Fight, girl, fight

Heart racing fast

Panic, can't breathe, can't see

Oh God, get me out of this

Closing my eyes I take a deep breath

Find the spot in my soul

My center

My heart

Slow it down

Slower and slower

But wait, no

No I can't

It's all about me

I...me...the one behind my eyes

I love who I am

It's not about you

Stop, slow down

It's time you learned

It's not about you

It's about Him

And the good news is

That what he has to offer

Is beauty beyond the twinkling stars in the sky
