Shattered once was I
So many awkward pieces
Too many remain
Rest my weary eyes
My dreams more than forsake me
It leaves me insane
Despite raging storms
No winds dare disturb this night
Yet, it howls within
Love fuels what it calms
In darkness or divine light
Bittersweet chagrin
Forgive my desire
I’m so long without love’s touch
Better off alone
Adding to the fire
Loneliness beyond too much
It scars to the bone
Somewhere in between
Nightmare with no end in sight
Can’t seem to outrun
Future yet unseen
Save me from myself tonight
I’m coming undone
Loving me is war
I’ve lost myself many times
Nothing much remains
Will no other heart
Wholly broken just as mine
Show me no refrain?
