@Loopy - thank you, Daddy told you a world's worth of lies and harm.
I hope you can undo all those tellings and replace the terrible-recording of Daddy's lies with a strong voice of love and self-compassion, retelling your life with strong, true, resilient and loving verse inside yourself.

I have been in a hole I dug to hide
I made the sides round and smooth
I hide it well so no one could find
I sent out my shell in the outside to dwell
So no one would look for this meaning less being
I hid away and lock out all
Now I think I want out as with me I cant live
I tell myself I am worthy to live than argue the point where we nolonger talk
I want out but I cut of all now no one even looks
I call I scream even in my dreams
Even there no replys come
Have really dug my hole to deep
Did I not see the pain was too much
Did I not know that people I need
Something I missed that I know now is utter dispare
Some please reach into my pit
Reach out a hand and we could just sit watch the sky
We dont need to talk not in the first
I have been too far away for far to long
I know there must be a path that I can follow
I just need someone who can help me find that path
I shut off all i stopped wanting to be but now known that was wrong
I want to come back but I dont know how

@SCORPION - powerful imagery and metaphor, the deep hole indeed. I can really relate to the deep hole and the sending out of my shell into the world. We are split indeed. I hope your two parts reunite in love and understanding. May someone reach in, and may you reach out.
I have turned that deep hole that I also dwell in (from time to time) into a 'love bunker' when things are really tough I imagine this...

Slowly down the path Scorpion walks looking but no longer seeing
sences dulled by medication and life step by step but not progressing
darkness in the distance darkness in the past no light shines on this path
just a dull glow of life.
slowly a figure of a child comes into view as he approches a dim recolection of scorpions start to this
journey is recalled and lost in a flash.
The child looks familiar in a strange way but scorpion cant place why is it maybe the sadness in this childs eyes or the lost look on his face.
never mind scorpion continuies on going nowhere.
the child just stops and askes "WHY" ?
Starteld scorpion stops stares "WHY"
then sees it is himself oh so long ago what do you tell yourself to avoid the present.
We did not choose this path i have tried so many time's to find a light to some other path but we always end up here .
DARKNESS AHEAD DARKNESS IN THE PAST.
We hide for awhile crawl out to see if the world has changed but no it never changes.
Let scorpion tread his path undisturbed unseen unheard.
His ghost will front the world and show a presents so he can hide and stay safe from its accusing gaze.
Safe from himself he continues on going nowhere.
