Robbed
Bitter is the state of mind
that keeps the broken hearts alive.
Fool me once, but ne’er again.
I will not let another in.
Only in the night
do I miss your arms to stay in
Only in the night
do my lonely thoughts fall prey
The company I miss,
once my dear, now turned stranger,
is only in the night
but not ever through the day
I’m close to crumbling
once again.
Blood and tears rush
to my head.
Suppress the pain,
wish it away.
I know I’ll hurt,
just not today.
Sorrow and death, they robbed him of joy
his soul was unusually tired for a boy
He grew up too soon from all of the pain,
but with it he had only wisdom to gainSuch a soft heart with a rough, calloused hand
A gruff and hard-working and honest young man
His eyes gloss with age from the worries and strife
of growing up bearing the burdens of life.
I am bleeding
I am broken
All my parts have been ripped open
I am needing
I am hoping
I am trying not to cryYou are decent
You are loving
You are something when there’s nothing
Can you see me
Can you hold me
Will you bring me back to life.
