Broken
I've breen watching you for a while
Your darkened eyes and empty smile
Sobs forced into a hearty laugh
Pretending to be whole when you're broken in half
You eye those blades on the shelf
Deciding to use them to hurt yourself
On the top of a building, toes hanging over
Feeling that your life and happiness is completely pover
You say that the planets will still fly around the sun
Life will continue and time will still run
So you say that you won’t be missed
You have never even been kissed
But I don’t care who you are
Don’t care where you live, near or far
I don’t even know your name
But I don’t want you to kill your flame
I couldn’t care less what you do
I don’t care what you look like too
But put down that blade, please
Undo the noose you made by the trees
You fight battles everyday of your life
For you, the darkness is rife
But you don’t have to fight it alone
I’m there to be your pillar, your rock, your stone
Please just don’t do it
Please don’t just quit
I’ll be whatever you need
Just don’t end it, I plead
You are the future of our Earth
Your mind, ideas, heart are of so much worth
You might be the start of a new era or age
But not as long as you lock yourself in a cage
Your darkened eyes can finally cry
Your empty smile can stop the lie
You can break and show you’re broken
Let your pain and tears be spoken
Then you and I can stitch you back together
The colored thread making you more beautiful than ever
But only as long as you keep a promise between you and I
Stop replacing tears with blood; just wrap your arms around my body and cry.
