How do you mend a broken heart
That's shattered into pieces?
I tried taping together the scars
But the cracks somehow increases

It's like a puzzle that's left undone
Scattered from here to there
Strewn about like fallen leaves
And lying everywhere

Bigger pieces crumble when touched
I cannot stop these breaks
For even glue will not do
When the pieces turn to flakes

It falls apart inside my hand
I'm even too scared to breathe
Without a heart to love and feel
I'm just too broken to grieve

My heart was used for many things
Like fear, compassion or trust
But now my heart cannot be saved
For it's shattered into dust

Holding small reminders within the moments after
Frail in our own existence
Laid bare now
You have seen my darkness first hand
There is no more to me now
Self respect crumbled in pavements travelled by many a stranger
Satin touch of the purest existence
Madness holds me close to my godself
Madness frees me from my illusions of this world
There is only love which exists
Some love to love
Some live to write of love laid upon the shore
Some live to fight , to ****
Love is all there is when faced with self denial
Hold me within the softness of rose petals
But when you drop me
The thorns will make me whole again
Blood red
Beautiful
Happy to be alive within
Even if to you all
You only see a broken frame

There is no
home where
my heart is

yet
