As the glass shattered
I saw the pouring rain bitter the sidewalk
I try to pick up the broken pieces
That laid in the bathroom floor
They burned my hands
Just like glass
Sharp and painful

I heard tears coming from the bathroom
That night
As I walked up the stairs
I heard you weeping in the last room
As I walked trying to reach you
I heard all of these sounds echoing in my ear

As if they tried to stop me
They called out my name
Louder and louder

My heart sunk deep into the hard wood floors
The image of you crying you heart out left me broken
Your heart was broken

On the floor
I touched them

And I found pure cuts around my hands
As you continue on weeping
I couldn't do anything
You tears were just like the sound of rain

As you tried
I was giving up
No,
I can't
Not now I thought

But now I look back
I cut myself trying to help you
I found bruises all over my arms
As I held tightly onto you
Hoping you won't give up
Though I didn't mind bleeding out for you

The End
