Shattered glass,
No one sees the break,
All the evidence is hidden,
All the cracks have been taped;

I tried to warn you all,
No one believed in wolves,
The damage was ignored,
I was treated as a fool;

I never asked for your help,
All I needed was a hand,
You left me to my pain,
For no longer in this I stand;

You couldn’t lend an ear,
That’s all I really need,
You leave me all alone,
My only friend is misery;

I gave you many signs,
I wanted you to see,
That I am broken, I give up,
Am I not worth this breath I breathe?
