Broken As Me


Tired of crying, inside I am dying. Tired of the fears, they swallow me with tears. Tired of no sleep. The cuts show so deep. Tired of these people, they hide under the steeple, pretending to be perfect. They say "it's all worth it", but the things they say aren't backed up b what they pray. They think life is a game but their thoughts are such a shame. They won't let people see that they are as broken as me.
