You broke me in half
Pencil snap,
Broken glass,
Shards up and down my heart
Bloody and scarred
Like a cutter's arms
Your words a razor, so
Lost and careless
I called it love
You called it lust
Either way it was.A broken glance
A final wave
My heart falling apart like
A loose necklace clasp
Always broken,
Never known
Always broken,
Never known
Always shattered
Never whole
Always broken,
Never known.
