These are the blank verses that I write,
Few empty words that I quote
Seeing the beauty of this mortal world
With all my scars and wounds
And the pain that flows

The sun knows what I do;
But the moon has seen all the secrets poured onto my pillow
Never knew I had a best friend like that ,
Until I took a look in the mirror.

These empty words that I quote
For my soul is scarred
You'll never know how it hurts
Until you stand in front of the mirror
And ask yourself to be strong
While you crumble and it tears you apart.

These blank verses that I write
'Cause there's no light my eyes can find
Wavering, faltering, desperate to reach out,
But all the same drowning farther than a rock bottom;
My own demons pulling me inside.

These are the blank verses that I write
Few empty words that I quote
For you'll never love me
If you knew how broken I was
