He sits in his car in a cloud of smoke His tears turn milky and there's a crack in his voice, He texts his friend he's too broken to talk, But she was once broken too and knows how it feels She wants all the world to forever be healed He holds a torch and burns hard into soft, Makes the brittle glass melt, Like he breaks girls hearts But a broken heart cuts more than any other with blood stained betrayal, and neglect and no father He finally wants the friends to know that he knows what he's done. He's unsure where to go He knows that he's hurt her but she grew back and moved on without the pain in her soul or a frown but a new song He wants to be whole, he wants deserve his friends He scorns those who have loved him. Because he doesn't understand what can they possibly see that is worth loving? In his battered broken eyes he wishes words would wish him well Instead of flaming images of all the trauma he's had to endure Like the torch he holds in his hand he tries to control the pain and make it melt the broken brittle pieces of his shattered broken self.

Leave it alone
He sits in his car in a cloud of smoke His tears turn milky and there's a crack in his voice, He texts his friend he's too broken to talk, But she was once broken too and knows how it feels She wants all the world to forever be healed He holds a torch and burns hard into soft, Makes the brittle glass melt, Like he breaks girls hearts But a broken heart cuts more than any other with blood stained betrayal, and neglect and no father He finally wants the friends to know that he knows what he's done. He's unsure where to go He knows that he's hurt her but she grew back and moved on without the pain in her soul or a frown but a new song He wants to be whole, he wants deserve his friends He scorns those who have loved him. Because he doesn't understand what can they possibly see that is worth loving? In his battered broken eyes he wishes words would wish him well Instead of flaming images of all the trauma he's had to endure Like the torch he holds in his hand he tries to control the pain and make it melt the broken brittle pieces of his shattered broken self.
