Behind the Teenaged Mind

Broken Glass

Why couldn't you just say the truth,
You strung me along
You told me lie after lie
You took my trust
Then you crushed it like a bug.
You're the evil queen
You slowly squeezed my heart
Right in front of me,
You watched it turn into ash
Then you walked over it
You watched me fall
Then you walked away.
As I hit the ground you laughed
Then you continued to play,
You kept pleading for me to believe you
And like a fool I repeatedly did.
The result nothing but pain.
How could I be so dumb
To let myself be played.
How could I allow this,
For me to be devoured in misery.
I knew the consequences
But I chose to ignore them
I'm trying to piece myself together
To make myself whole
But I just keep tumbling back down,
Hurt in my eyes
As you walk away
With not a single care in the world
Leaving me on the ground
Like a splatter of paint,
That just wasn't worth the effort to clean up
You left me like that scarred and damaged,
For someone else to find
Just like Humpty Dumpty when he fell off that wall
Left me to believe that no one can save me,
That no knight will try
Or maybe they'll give up,
Because I'm not worth the saving.
But guess what...
Someone's trying.
And he hasn't given up
No matter how many times I fall down,
He try's to build me up again.
Doesn't ever lose hope
No matter how dark it gets,
Or how hard I push
He keeps trying to piece me back together again.
He won't stop trying to repair
All the damage you caused
Just because I listened to the snake I thought was a knight.
He's not letting me go through this ordeal alone,
Although he doesn't know if I'll end up like Humpty Dumpty,
He keeps fighting to undo what you have done
