Broken recognizes broken.
Two broken souls will find each other,
and hang on for life.
If broken recognizes broken
and I am alone,
am I really broken
or,
have I just not found
someone as broken as me yet?

Broken pieces shattered all on the floor;
Broken wings, bent and wilted- they don't
fly anymore.
Broken promises on hopes held high;
Broken stars no longer dancing
in the sky.
Broken dreams and nightmarish nights-
not sleeping, you see, has become
a difficult thing to fight;
Broken words on tongues not held,
all remained empty- a prisoner
without his cell.
Broken hearts and dreamless eyes,
Broken thoughts and broken lies
Broken, broken, broken is it all-
this place is so tiny, it no longer
stands tall.
Everything is broken, down to the pieces
shattered on the floor;
Broken they lay- they couldn't take it any longer,
not anymore.

The broken man can not feel,
no, the broken man can not heal.
The broken man creates a child,
and leaves it defenseless in the wild.

The broken man does not care,
no, the broken man is never there.
The broken man is built to roam,
after he destroys your home.
He'll put your life upon a shelf,
yes, the broken man only loves himself.
The broken man has no voice,
ignoring common sense with every choice.

It's his world, it's his life,
you've been hurled, for his wife.
It's his plan, it's his goals,
the broken man leaves broken souls.

The broken man just lives for fun,
he believes he is the only one.
The broken man is always dazed,
and believes his family is not phased.
The broken man cares much for wealth,
but still he only loves himself.
The broken man is my father,
and I don't wish to be a broken daughter.

It's his world, it's his life,
he’s got pearl, I’ve got strife.
It's his clan, filled by holes,
the broken man leaves broken souls.

The broken man does not feel,
no, the broken man will always steal.
The broken man creates a child,
and the broken man has never smiled.
The broken man cares not for health,
but he'll always only love himself.
The broken man is my father,
because of the mother I miss; he forgot her.

It's his world, it's his life,
you've been hurled, for his wife.
It's his plan, it's his goals,
the broken man leaves broken souls.

Pain pain go way
Never come back for another ache.
I’m too tired, messing with my mistake.
Pain pain go away!

Pain pain go away
I've been too weak for what you did.
Stubbing my heart, until it bleed.
Pain pain go away !

Pain pain go away!
I’ll never be deceived, your love is fake.
I’m too drained, black tears I cried.
Pain pain go way!

Pain pain go away
Never come back for another lie.
My heart is breaking, and soon will die.
Pain pain go away!

A striking beauty
No painter could master
No camera could capture
Only the eyes of the one who
Truly loved her
Could see the true beauty
That she really was
Inspired by “once upon another time” by ScriptedSilence. It was a real beauty. True art

Why do words look better on a sheet,
When, from my mouth, they seem incomplete?
How is it they flow so well with ink?
If I try to speak them, I cannot think.
Will they transform, someday? From noise to sound?
If I voice words out there, will they be found?

You are tea,
serene in your surroundings.

                                                               ­                                        I am coffee,
                                                                ­           attention always bounding.

Your colour milkish pale,
creamy optimism.

                                                               ­                              I am taken black,
                                                                ­                                bitter cynicism.


Two sugars,
to match your disposition.

                                                               ­                                     None for me,
                                                             ­       I'll maintain my grim affliction.


                                               We differ so much,
                                                     it's obscene.
                                                  
     ­                                              But in the end
                                               we're both caffeine.

Break my bones;
cut my throat.
Pull me open,
learn the ropes.

Breath me in;
taste the fear.
Shank my skin;
stand and cheer.

Kick my head;
let me bleed.
Unbolt my veins;
enjoy the read.

Gouge my eyes;
punch my face.
Wrap me up
in your embrace.
Get to know me like I do you; inside and out.
