You broke me down I once stood tall A bolder steady against the tide Basking in the warmth I thought would last forever You chipped away at me Slowly, Eroding me over time Piece by piece Until I no longer recognised what was left Parts of me lost to the tide I once stood tall against Parts of me I will never reclaim I sit in the shadows A small pebble Cold in a place That used to feel like warmth The tide still pulls like there something Left to be ripped away Like I can be worn down even more Until I no longer exist

You broke me down I once stood tall A bolder steady against the tide Basking in the warmth I thought would last forever You chipped away at me Slowly, Eroding me over time Piece by piece Until I no longer recognised what was left Parts of me lost to the tide I once stood tall against Parts of me I will never reclaim I sit in the shadows A small pebble Cold in a place That used to feel like warmth The tide still pulls like there something Left to be ripped away Like I can be worn down even more Until I no longer exist
