Crumpled in a corner,
nothing to hope for.
A broken record once more,
everything ripped to shreads.
I reach for the paper,
stained before from you.
I know the words you wrote,
I burned them onto my heart.
But even though this is true,
the pain and moans crack.
I know it seems pathetic,
but the tears I all I have.
I grab the eraser in the corner,
stabbing the paper with it.
I know this won't eraser the word,
but it makes me feel better that their gone.
I want this to be gone,
but it isn't possible in my state,
As I am a broken record,
no song to be played now.
I wish for the ability to tell you,
but how can I say these things in words?
My burned heart crumples under the thought,
but I can't let this go on without something said.
So I reach for the blood,
and I search for the pen.
I write everything I love and want,
and the horride truth inside.
This is the story of my life,
and I know this is all I have.
I know it may seem weird,
but I need this pen to tell the truth.
Because with only this pen,
I can tell the world what I want and need.
I need this pen,
even though it made me crupple more in the past.
It is my lifeline,
don't take it away.
Because if you do,
i'll just be the broken record once more.
