Fragments of a child with no fear
A child without a tear
Lay on the ground
Spinning around
Tainted by that man
By that boy
By that girl
Broken people
Stepped on toys
Thrown away
And taken the next day
Silent nights spent in dispair
Waiting for the comfort that's never there
Struggling to keep on
Watching the lights of dawn
Settling for a broken home
Inside myself I'm so alone
Abandoned by the one true person I can trust
The one person keep I must
Me, myself and I
But that person has died
A ghost of a careless being
Drifts off into a dream
So surreal and empty now
It's all gone now
Wrap my arms around cold skin
This time I let the darkness win
Deeper and deeper I feel myself sink
Before the dark I dare to blink
Just another poem about a broken soul
Crying about never being whole
I can taste resentment on my tounge
Why should I care?
Reasons? I can think of none
