Whole


Find you sleeping

In the morning light

Long nights

Broken fights

Skip through my head

The ugly words

We both said

Threw like weapons

The glass 

We walk on

Cutting ourselves

Trying so hard to be

What we need

Coming up short

Enough is enough

 

Your heart

Battered 

Is worth the world to me

Your eyes

Have seen

Too much

So much horror

And every step

You take

Down that broken road

You find me

Waiting at the end of it

You're never alone

As it seems

The games your mind

Plays on you

I'm never as far away

As you think I am

You're beautiful to me

But just a man

And I give you

All I can

 

So take my hand

Reach for me

In the dead of night

It's alright

Even when the sun goes out

And the rain 

Won't stop

Don't ever say

It's too much

It's never too much

Keep me close

I'll keep you close

No on will ever know

Your secrets

And pain

Just lay it on me

And I will lay it on you

Two broken halves

FInally making a whole
