I've fallen so far,
lost myself on the way down.
I flew for a moment before
crashing colliding with my
broken heart.
My pieces shattered so easily,
I couldn't find the strength
to put them back together again.
I stayed on the ground for
awhile, the mud and salt
steeped into my lungs, choking
my breath until nothing was left.
Nothing but tears.
