Open up to me, he says But inside there is nothing but void Feel a little, he says Little does he know Every word that spills from his mouth Injects itself into my blood The anesthetic that numbs my soul Listen to me, he yells But all I hear is noise. They want to fix me Want to hammer out the perfect girl To fit into their crumbling little world -- a doll to beautify their cemetery their collection of hollowed out bodies. I may be empty but I’ve already been a token Too many times. Let me fix you, they say. But all they do is break me. Take more from me. Let me fix you, they say. Never once did they ask to heal me. Try to glue me back together. I’m already open. But I was broken into. Robbed. Shattered Hammered. Invaded. I’m already open But you don’t like what you see I guess it’s not pretty to watch me bleed. I’m already open. But you don’t like what you’ve found. ******* away the pain won’t do no good, So put me back down. Inject me with your silent poison and Put Me Down. -lf-

You're Not a Handyman
