She was whoever you wanted her to be
You could take an image
Reflect
She will repeat

He was a fire
He could grow and into an unstoppable force
If the vacuums of depression and peer pressure didn't take his breath away
He was fragile
But beautiful at the same time

I am a broken down snow globe
Still playing that same old tune
A little of key
Hoping that someone would wonder
Into this abandoned town where I am left hopelessly
Alone
The glass is cracked but I still try
I bend the broken springs
Train the ballerina how to twirl
And keep the snow falling
Just so I can bring joy to someone who wanders past my little broken town
And see that life can come from death
But no one ever comes
And I an left hopelessly
Alone

And we all want one thing
Love
And we all search for it at the bottom of this never ending bottle
So we all drink our selfs to sleep
On this cold dark island
Where we can't build a bridge of hope to get over the river
So we sit
Side by side
Dont cry
Breathe
Drink
Repeat
Until we get weak
Fall asleep
And no one else is there to fill our cups
Our cracked old cups with the fake potion that makes our hopes a reality
Then puts us to sleep

Maybe this time I won't wake up

Repeatedly
Post your drafts
