Broken
Broken Down:
J. Roberts
9/10/08
Lost in this emotion
Confused in this silence
Taken back by your presence
Struck down with words
Broken into pieces
Stolen from truth
Broken down in memories of you
Finding answers in mistakes
Regret from those who take
Taken parts of me, torn them like paper
Glass shattered by being fake
Taken bits of you, into a sculpture of us
Broken down, left without an ounce of trust
Like an explosion ready to bust
You and me without lust.
Time in a frozen bottle
Standing at a stop to no where
Looking for the ride home
No fare to pay the cost
Lying in the battle field
Just the broken parts of our limbs
Bleeding from the outside in
Living day to day, sin to sin
Broken down in the tears that drop
Silently waiting for it all to stop
Broken down, we lye here
Broken down, we stay
Broken down, all alone
Broken down, in the days ahead
Broken by you in each tear that I shed.
