Take Away My Shattered Dreams

Take away my shattered dreams -
Every little piece.
Stars are crashing. And, it seems,
I was born to miss.

Take away my broken heart -
I don't want to feel.
Once again I fall apart.
Maybe I 'm not real...

Take away this endless pain,
Take away the light.
Maybe, I will die again
Only for tonight.

Take away my frozen soul.
I don't want to fight.
Leave me and just let me fall,
I will be alright.

A beautiful poem. The wounded heart will heal. The frozen soul will thaw.
