Are you there?

 

 

With so many dead ends

And spiraling roads to nowhere

I ask why you

Why you

 

A final roll call

With one person missing

While the officer finishes

His last drop of whiskey

 

Screaming out broken windows

Cutting your hands trying to fix my heart

You broke me

But I broke you first

 

The way pavement smells

In the rain

How come

You never stayed?

 

Each day

The mirror shattered

A mosaic of lies

 

What a beautiful

(fucked up) story

You created

For our eyes.
