All I need is "Love"


I'm from a place called broken. broken as I am
I still stay holding. holding on to my memories which once I thought that they where golden Like my heart that beats slow because of the heaviness. I remember what you said to me.
All I need is you

I remember. how you smiled at me with your dreams which made me experience what you saw
In your heart which was artificial because you too once were broken.
Broken like a mirror when it's dropped. cracked open into a million pieces that you constantly try fixing however you will never forget when you've once dropped it. Have your hands blood thirsty for every lovely memory that you dropped still lies broken. Broken like the little lies you tell fixing up that truth. You ever wandered why it hurts so bad?
You Broke me!
All I need is you.
you Broke me
like dice when I crapped out I'm sorry but you can't put a price on you and this is no longer a game you have torn the joy that sticks to me broke you broke me.
Broke me like when the stock market crashed and our pockets went into a flat line well excuse me for drinking and driving.
Broken warriors that remain dead KIA. Soldiers that died soldiers because then couldn't live like men I've fought for all the right reasons you shamed me for. Where the honor of breaking?
I'm from a place called broken broken as I am
I still stay holding. holding on to my memories which once I thought that they where golden Like my heart that beats slow because of the heaviness. Now turned emptiness into an abyss of dizziness.
Artificial. Like you once were.
Open heart surgery isn't so bad.
I hope know how to handle weight.

All I need is love
