Broken

How do we mend - these lives that lay broken?

How do we live - with these fears left unspoken?

And I yearn for someone to hold

Someone to be my anchor in this life

How do we find - those lost forever

Recollections of mine - are lost in this ether

Images caught in my cold memory

Reverence yet! I still owe to her being

These swollen eyes bless me with tears

As you renounced all these vows you swore and believed.

Turmoil that can't be resolved

Conflict of will driving deeper

Where hope is all but deceased

Wallow in your desperation

And as you drift away - There's nothing left to say

Unable to face the pain - Only this emptiness fills my soul

But right until the end - You will pray for me

Hold me in your arms - Bless me with your caress.

Struggle upwards towards the light

Breathless paralysis dragging you down

Staring eyes of glass as the world grows dark all around

There was - There was no release

There was - There was nothing left… For me.

But when you speak - All I hear are tears falling

Falling down on me - Baptize me with your grief

It's so hard to live - When you look away

When you look away - and I am left here

all alone (with just my self to blame)

I am empty - all dead inside- and I can never heal

Yes I am Broken- All cleaved in two -

Too many thoughts -of what might have been - and can never be

If you had died - then at least - at least I could have grieved.

All I am is broken - broken down - all down

When you're alone - When you're afraid

What will you do - to save your sanity?

Is this dream - Where I never wake?

Yes I am broken - all dead inside - and I can never heal - all cleaved in

two

Too many thoughts of what might have been and can never be

Bleak is this place - when mortality is forsaken for the dream

where broken men weep
