one day this vessel i sail
will sink in the ground
and escape this hell

until that day, for now,
see i only do as needed
as i need to somehow
some say life on earth is hell.  
some say the weak-minded seek help.  
some say the mind is the loneliest place to dwell.

nothing i say isn't something you'd try to foretell.

I saw things through his broken eyes
and held him close. I promised I'd fix us.
He was so torn apart.
Every day he tried to defog his eyes
He cried and cried until no tears could fall to the floor
He continued to cry even though the tears came no more
He loves her, she loves him but he is stuck in what seems to be a thrilling sin
He loves her body, her curves and every small thing about her
But he loves the other girl's heart and soul
He is stuck and doesn't know what to do
He is lost in the love, the tears, and the broken trust.
Oh what shall I do my dear
I love you too, but how long do you really think I can sit and wait for you here
I ask you daily, shall I stay or shall I go?
Your answer is always to do what I once told you, follow your heart no matter what
My heart is aching and yearning for you, I tell you there is nothing I wouldn’t do for a guy like you
I sit and stare at my reflection, hoping one day you’ll see yourself from my prospection
The guy of my dreams, the one that keeps my heart going
I still see you with broken eyes, broken heart, broken skin, and broken trust
Come back to me, darling. . . I promise this time I will truly fix us.

— The End —
