My heart stops when I see him Not the stop that expresses love The stop that makes you want to run A stop that makes you hide inside Maybe at one point the stop was love But now my stop is purely hatred and fust He grins but I look no longer at him No longer at those eyes that once held me in But now at the floor where I stare in disgust Disgust made by his big broken parts His heart so broken it turned mine to dust His was broken not by his own means A family that beat and yelled continuously All held together by his broken heart strings Making their baby cry like a great stream But for some reason their baby did the same to me I tried and I tried to hold it together But my heart wasn’t use to getting tethered You see my strings didn’t make strong seams I watched as my heart finally shattered And stop for the first time altogether
