You’re Broken?
Don’t you realise that
There is no one in this world to help me
No one by my side
There’s only me, myself and I
I don’t have anyone to hug
Or have a shoulder to cry on
I only have my pillows
To scream and sob into
I feel ignored because
While I pay my respect to everyone
No one else does the same to me
I’m helpful to everyone
And I understand others
I’ve kept my feelings to myself, trying not to break
And YOU’RE broken?
