Broken Glass

Hiding with these emotions 
I think I may be made of glass 
Light a match within me 
and watch me crack 

Yet I watch you fall apart 
And I can't help but wonder 
If I can ever fix your heart? 
Could I ever be the rock you need? 
or am I just supposed to watch you break instead? 

If only I could fake a smile 
And have you fooled 
Then you could put yourself together 
because I rather be broken glass.

This was a very sad poem! The one thing I noticed was in the line "or am I just suppose to watch you break instead? ", I think you meant "supposed"

Thank you so much for the review! I will edit that it a bit. :-)

Depressing. My fav line is "Light a match within me 
and watch me crack" ...could do more with that image of glass melting and cracking

Thanks for the review! I appreciate it and it really helped. Yeah maybe I will play with this poem more. Perhaps a separate poems on inner struggles? another person actually pointed out that it starts out like with inner struggles and then moves to watching someone else's struggles. I am not sure if I should separate this and or now. I know it's depressing... poems are me therapy for when I am sad. So they just don't turn out happy often.
