Sheet of Glass

by Leslie   Nov 18, 2005


Its all my fault,
Everything that has happen to me,
I told my self to forget it, keep on pretending
I dont know whats wrong with me.
Many things I think, just it all adds up
All this pain I deserve, I caused it
If Ive hurt you, Im sorry,
If youve hurt me, its not your fault
No one seems care that Im hurt
Why cant I handle this, I used to be able to
I used to be strong,
But my strength is wearing thin
Im a sheet of glass
When it smashes into a thousands pieces
It can never be how it was again,
So smooth and untouched
It can be fixed, but with cracks and pieces missing.
Even though its fixed, no one will care what happens to it
It will be left out in the rain, eternally broken and unloved.
When I started to smash I built a brick wall around me
Now no one can love me
I want to trust those I love,
But I can never take down that wall,
But, there is a small beam of hope, a door
If I have let you through it, dont hurt me anymore
I will not be broken anymore,
Not by you, not by me, not by anyone
The wall will stand forever strong,
But the glass will stand forever fragile and cracked
That is why the door will be fiercely guarded
If you think you can love me, please do,
Just dont hurt me anymore
This sheet of glass has been tortured enough.
