My eyes swim at every blink,
swollen with emotional rain...

I fall in love
with those who then abandon me...

Take me off your pedestal,
because I dethrone myself...

There you stand, your arms spread wide,
Giggling in the faded sun...

Fair weathered friends
Who need...

We mock, and we tear, and we break, and we rip,
Because we judge, and we assume, and we analyze...

I fail to be. . .
I fail to be me...

I am,
the voice for that sorrow...

You know that feeling,
when you are surrounded by a crowd...

Will I even be whole again?
In shards and pieces...

Why do you choose to sit there alone,
Holding the scissors, the knife, the razor blade...

You are so far away,
Too far away for me...
