Damaged
One simple word that describes me perfectly
I am
Often perceived to be something I'm not
Hidden behind a mask to disguise my fears
Can't run to my friends my family won't understand
They'll think im crazy halfway through my explanation
And we all know friends and enemies are one in the same
I will not allow anyone to find joy in my pain
Damaged
I don't trust people
Because people will almost always let you down
Revealing your secrets
Turning their backs on you
Vanishing when you need them the most
Broken promises and a false sense of hope
Damaged
I love to hard
Diving in head first with no regards to my heart
Loving him more than I love myself
Often getting lost in what can only be described as a ridiculous fantasy
Often turning a blind eye to whats in front of me
Knowing exactly how it will all end
Seeing the outcome before the story began
Usually left with a broken heart
Crying for days on end
Repeatedly loving the wrong kind of man
Foolishly expecting different results
This one seems different
I can make him change
One day he will see
Lying to my heart
Damanged
I give too many chances
Often to people who don't deserve it
This insane desire to make things right
Always seeking closure when I should just walk away
Always coming back when they beg me to stay
And I know its crazy
I know they won't change
Yet I find myself playing these same sad games
Over and over I do this again
Trying to fix things that have long fell apart
Damaged
And the list goes on
Futher than your eyes can see
Deep down in my soul
Lies pieces of me
Behind my eyes tears run through
Tickling my throat
Flooding my heart
My thoughts run rampant
They cloud my mind
Flowing down my back
Beating against my spine
Through my veins
It flows to my feet
Here I stand
Damaged
Me
