Irreparable Pieces

Remember when you promised

That you would never leave me

That your heart would never stop shining the light

That kept me warm during the winter

And whole when it was summer

And holds me like no other light before

Like the petals of a flower

Taking chance in its abundance

Take for granted what they gave you everyday

But when autumn takes them back

I don't know who to ask

I haven't left the house in ages

I'm so scared that I am dying

Pray to God that I'm not ready

Slow my heart and keep on trying

To tidy up the mess that I've been

Making most of my life

And continue making music

That I know you only like listening to

When you're in my shoes

Remember when you promised

That this would never happen

It said so in the letter that you wrote

Now I'm so cold during the winter

I want to die when its summer

I hope you die when another has your heart

And smashes it into irreparable pieces

And leaves them on a cold tile floor

Projected to the open

Where your mother can clearly see them

As she steps over the mess that you once were

So they'll be forced to lie

Right there next to mine
