Broken Again

Darling, you were not there to catch the first tear
Or the ones to follow afterwards. Darling, I just
Somehow knew that despite everything the fear

Was bigger that you were not the one.  The trust
Has been long gone. I did not know who or what
Was going to come after you. Everything bust

Apart at the seams. You only knew the shortcut
To my heart, but did not want to go around or
The long way. I should have listened to my gut

More because darling, that open and wide door
Was too good to be true. You cut everything
That was already broken on the same floor.

Darling, you are untying the same string
And trying to set it all free only to keep reeling
Me back in. Darling, go ahead. You should bring

The pain and misery because you keep stealing
My happiness. You keep taking more and
More because I am used to it. I try to keep healing

The same scars and wounds, but the rough sand
Keeps getting in the way. Everything is spinning.
You are letting me drown while you only stand

And watch it all like a spectator. You keep winning,
But darling, I no longer care. Darling, this is no
Longer the end, but the middle and beginning.
