Cracks

Cracks

A Poem by schnickythep

Somewhere in the back of my mind
I'm how I used to be
Before the storms and winds of life
Stole what made me free
Now I'm here wishing I'm not
Scarred and beaten down
Can't deal with it much longer
I'm not coming around

Count my cracks, one by one
Hoping I'm patched up
But just like a broken glass
This glue isn't enough

I need to fight for something
But I don't have a cause
Want to become a good man
But I don't like the laws
There's nothing I can do 
To change the way I feel
Live my whole life not knowing
If I'm really healed

Count my cracks, one by one
Hoping I'm patched up
But just like a broken glass
This glue isn't enough

I'm not okay, I know it
Never gonna be
I don't know how to fix it
My faults are plain to see
But even if I'm down and out 
I'm not given away
Just know I won't stop fighting
No matter what you say
