the one i gave to you

& i don't know what i'm doing in this broken world anymore,

i've been pulling at the seams for far too long

and i'm inches from falling off,

falling away and down,

down,

down,

or up,

if i'm lucky.

& i've lost the pieces that i tore off

when i just couldn't handle the pain,

left them lying on random sidewalks in random towns,

sprinkled across this nation

and this state

because i didn't know where else to put them

other than all over this god forsaken world

where you can make me cry

by telling someone

my greatest secret.

& thats just not cool bro,

do you realize how much pain that caused me?

i know that you want to fix me,

i know that you want to sew me together again

and find all of my missing pieces,

but you just made another piece go missing,

the one i gave to you.
