broken

so sweet, with the mean streak

hello broken person

i too am broken

today, i broke 

no, it's not the first time.

can't you tell?

read my cuts

i always love 

the ending of that story!

i guess i've gotten

less tolerant to pain

i mean, it's been a while

i won't lie, broken person

the wound stings a bit

in my heart and my thigh

i wish i could say 

the skin hurt more

but, you see, 

i've promised myself that

i'm not going to lie anymore

so this is me

stripped down 

to the bare minimum

look into my mind

my thoughts are for someone else

but you can have them for a while

that someone isn't around anyway
