Does a broken body still feel?
Or does it stop from the pain that is much too real,
Did it quit on me as I quit on life,
And wished to pierce myself with a knife,
Because it failed you?
Or did something else fail, too?
Heart broke,
Oxygen choked,
Bones so fragile,
Left with a body that isn't so agile,
Why did it quit,
Why did it?
Is it because she is gone?
Is that what's really wrong?
Because she went away,
Because I was too cowardly to ask her to stay
