a fragmented being
by cameron nix
(bluffton SC)
Here I stand,
Beaten and abused,
So alone, so confused
With only a quick glance,
People will see,
I am the one I used to be
I will fool them all,
With lies and false happiness,
When inside,
I'm torn, I am a mess
I am an empty shell,
A fragment of a being,
As time moves on,
My soul is fleeing
The old me is inside,
Trying to break out,
Yet no one hears it scream,
Hears it shout
All it needs,
To be made anew,
Is to hear those three words,
I love you
Get back the love of your life
