Broken

BROKEN

When you look at me

What do you see?

Do you see me like I do?

Broken?

Do you spend your days like me?

Wondering when the pain will ever end?

Do you spend hours wishing you weren't here?

Nighttimes crying?

Every time you walk past me

Do you wonder if I can't look at you for fear?

Or do you look inside

Where I can't tell you about?

Where my skin covers my broken heart

Where my hair that covers the hurt thoughts

Do you see the dried tear tracks

Where I cried alone last night?

Do you feel the pain

Of my heart being broken?

Do you see the scars

That haven't healed?

Can't you see?

I'm broken

Places to worn to stitch back up

Eyes too dry to cry no more

And yet

I still hurt

Deep, deep down inside

From the scars that somebody I loved gave me
