I want to fix all that is broken,
And hold you while you're in need.
**** every harsh word they've spoken,
Bleed so that you won't have to bleed.

I want to follow through with every empty promise.
That I know you still wait to come true.
Because darling I am just being honest,
When I say, I just want to save you.

So when they fight and all seems gray,
Know I am here, any time, any day.

I wouldn't miss it for the world,
But then you were taken from me,
You are the reason I won't give up.

Home is the place I wished to escape,
Now that I have, please send me back.
I miss my dog and family,
I wish I knew that growing up was a trap.

I was fine with being broken,
And dead, and dim.
Happy with the solitude I found myself in.
Then you came along, and turned on the light,
You gave me that putrid reason to fight,
A smile, is all it took from you,
To tear down the walls I've set.
Your voice it burned and healed me too,
Your touch forced it's love in my chest,
You are the reason I'm trying,
Please don't make this a waste of time.
I feel my heart string tying,
You've fixed me so now you are mine.

Sometimes it gets so cold and lonely,
I fear I'm the man on the moon.

You are the dial tone,
Cold and abstract,
All I ever wanted to do was hold you.
Gavin Betty Jul 2014
The thought of you now pains me,
Like an ulcer you sit and you bleed,
The sound of your voice is salt in my wounds.
