Shattered Glass
If I could cry I would
At the break of you
Glistening shards
Of the once pristine body I held so dear
Such a trusted vessel
I once kept my heart in you
Now it seems so desolate
This disarray of broken glass
Even with the sharpest spear
Sending its painful tear through my heart
I can't help but admire your beauty
The way the light clings to you in helpless glimmer
Gorgeous glittering dreams of you
Always made my heart beat so quick
My breath so hot
And I felt truly
Safe
Within you
Safe
With you
Trusted vessel
It can't help but hurt me to see you this way
With your tattered crown of shards exposed
There is no safe way for me to hold on
I need my hands to hold my own heart now
Safe
Separate my pulsing red love from your skin
Pick the pieces of cutting lies from me
Safe
I can feel it again I swear
No matter how long it takes to heal
I will beat again
I will love again
Somewhere safe within
A vessel who wants to hold me as dear as I hold them
Who's clear and true
Not blinding lights and glitter
Just true
Clear
And true
Just true
Is the very least I needed from you
Even with the broken promises searing through my skin
I hate to let go
Of such a beautiful dream
Of you
