So she found a smile
In the ruin of her broken heart
As it turned out
He puzzled up her pieces
And made her
Herself
In the most delicate way
No one could ever does

He came into my bedroom last night,
As I curled up,
Burrowed deep into the covers
Searching for his arms.
In my head were demons
Chasing little me around.
He came in.
He banished them away,
Tall, beautiful.
Mine.
Above me, he stared at me as I dreamt
Of his eyes,
That mesmerizing voice
Soothing my fear...
He stared one last time.
He leaned down,
And kissed me.
Supple, soft.
Endearingly, as if I was as fragile as I looked,
As if I would break.
He forgot everything I've been through
While I lay, vulnerable.
He kissed me anyways,
Those tender lips...
He took away all the shivers
And took me away to a land far away,
A safer place.

But he stood up, and walked out the door afterwards.
To go to his own safe place.
Somewhere no one could hurt him,
Somewhere no one would come for him.

He just forgot to take me with him.

there's no nutrition for my being
what i need is what they're keeping
the pain won't ease, laying, bleeding
i am here, weak and weeping

there are no dreams that i'm seeing
a vacant dream is how i'm sleeping
i can't proceed in the life i'm leading
i am here, weak and weeping
