Break

If a heart breaks
And no one cares,
Do I even matter?

You don't have to trust someone to love them
After all, that's how we get broken hearts,
Broken bodies,
Broken minds.

And then the lights fade
But I am not asleep.
No, I do not sleep.

Not when the thought of you
Sends me spiraling
Down to the unsteady ground.

Glass cracks under hands
That grow wary of band aids,
Until the veins are split
And I flow free,

Free from you and who I'm not,
Free of the cold glances,
And fools gold words.

I find myself nowhere
Because there is no one around
And there is no one left to trust.

And so the world breaks
And I spiral
Down.
