Glass and Other Fragile Things

shattered glass, all over the floor. my feet bleed, but I still want more. some years ago, you started a war. I loved you once, never again I, swore. you paint me evil, but I disagree. you disliked yourself, and took it out on me. these marks that you’ve left are starting to wear. I can’t be who you need, but you don’t care. shattered glass, nothing to fall for. a million cracks run through the pane, & i wait for you at the door.
