Overdose

Tired hearts and
tired people
worn
cracked
cut up
and broken
by people who have
not yet been
fractured
by love
or no love

it's so
sad
watching the
broken
trying in vain
to cure the
pain
and stitch up
their wounds
with more people
the very things
that broke them
in the first
place

people are not
medicine
someone should
have told you
that by now
the thing that
split you in
two
cannot glue you
back together
