Broken

Broken

We are broken souls you and I,

touched by time and left behind

to dwell in pain, to slowly find

a way to hide

the tears and scars

and pick up rocks then call them stars.

We watch the clocks you and I

when we go home and hide alone,

we pray for dawn when nights are long

and say goodbye

to dreams of life we never had

and pray for death

when things are bad,

then hide again and catch our breath.

We love too deep you and I

and feel so strong,

then cry too much for other’s pain

but try in vain

somewhere belong

and when we are wrong

we cry again

until we are strong,

no one to blame

just broken souls you and I.

H.O.
