I’m broken again
Not sure if I have
Any pieces to put back together
I was already more glue than substance
Stretched so thin...
So thin...
Cracked and chipped
Dented and ripped
Everyone taking their little piece
And leaving The Mess on the floor
Huddled on the floor
A guitar weeps
And the darkness creeps
Whispering, whispering
The whispers that strike
Like steel on a tender nerve
‘Next time’
‘Not now’
‘You understand’
‘It’s no big deal’
‘I know you better than you’
Whispers that gut
The still beating heart
With rusty barbs
And leaves nothing but shards
Too small...
Too little...
Too late...
Pieces only
No more whole
