Worthlessly Perfect

We live a starless life

Fragile and imperfect

Beneath rainy skies

Believed to be worthless

Unable to awake from misery

Alone and unable to sleep

Drowning in our own screams

Tears that flow endlessly

Wishing tomorrow wouldn’t come

Bathed in self inflicted pain

Wanting to disappear far away

Hiding behind fakes smiles

Holding back over flowing sorrow

Reaching out for answers

Someone who understands us

Someone to believe in

Since we can’t believe in ourselves

Staring out the window

Wondering if there really is such a person

Who would actually care

Hold me close and always be there

Fill my starless sky

With hopes and meaning filled life

Wipe away my tears

Scaring away my fear

Becoming what life failed to be

The only one to mean everything
