They say, " the colder the heart, the warmer the gun"
Baby, check the temperature of my blood
I'm trigger happy, cause I can
I have an innocent face and you're just a man

I am broken
Needing glue
Split in two

I am broken
A flickering light
Turned just right

I am broken
I've made a mess
A game of chess

I am broken
By a silent past
It creeps in fast

I am broken
Love is scarred
Falling hard

I am not broken
Something new
I was awoken
I met you

Canyons
Full of empathy
Roads
Leading to destiny
Fields
To run
My racing mind
Nothing
Full of wasted time

Eyes
The spotlight on me
Nose
The chain between
Lips
The door that never locks
Neck
The ignition
Chest
Bare with intention
Arms
The bandage
Hands
The leader of the pack
Feet
Walking away from me
Heart
Something I'll never meet

Wondering around
Until you're free
I am a victim
Of fortunate encounters
And now I'm just wasting time
Until I see you again

One day I'll wake up
The reality will hit me
For now I'll stay naive
That someone could love me

I've watched the pieces fall apart
Then burn with intention
You're so different from that
Pure magnetism

There's a balance
But I can't keep the pace
Every time I show myself
I still cover my face

My intentions
Make me arrogant
Your needs
Make you so eloquent

There's a balance
But too much appeal
Projecting my needs
Making none of it real
Liz Jul 2018
Throat hurts from the smoke
These thoughts provoked
I feel it breaking
My life disrupted
I promised myself otherwise
Do you know how to read?
This label reads fragile

I'm feeling impulsive
Anything to run away
You want to be reckless
Such a harsh thing to say
