Broken Glass, Shattered Pieces

You've cried a million tears for me You've given me a hand to hold Even though I'd always run away You welcomed me back home I thought I had found someone The last time I ran off But the truth is you were always there Fighting against my growing fears You didn't have to stay with me But you loved me anyway The mirror came crashing down The shards of glass embedding into my skin I looked up through my water heavy lashes And saw you weeping there There was nothing more that I wanted Then to hold you and kiss you I was too late however.. I'd drowned inside my own grief I hope these words of comfort Will be carried to you on the wind Because the truth is even though I didn't deserve you You'd given me hope to live There's one last thing to tell you Even though I'm scared to admit it But I love you in return, and will cherish your heart Even if I can't be there with you ----------------------------------- I wrote this for the person who has my heart.. My "Twin".
