Crumble

by Shantel   Nov 24, 2008


My heart is crying out
But you refuse to listen.
I wanna scream and shout
But instead, my cheeks, they glisten.
No one really cares
And that makes it hurt even more.
I should just get revenge
And that should even the score.
But no matter what you do
I can't do the same in return.
The world doesn't work like that.
If I try, I'll get burned.
For the pieces to the puzzle
Of my slightly twisted life
Are either always misplaced
Or never seem to fit right.
My world is falling down
And there's no helping hand.
No one to rescue me
I think I understand
My life's not a work of art
Nor a kid's finger-painting.
It's more like a broken glass
My love is so degrading.
Like a home above a sinkhole
Or a sand castle in high tide
Everything's falling apart
And I'm just along for the ride.
