I’ve been broken down before

Torn apart at the seam

Then sown together so many times

That it’s hard to define

What area my heart is located in

I give my affection freely

Trusted to all effortlessly 

This thread

The one I’ve been pulling at

Never seems to end

As my heart grows smaller

So must my love

No longer can I walk

No longer am I attached 

I’ve been losing height

Is there no one who doesn’t have an upper hand 

So unprepared

So unfair and uncompromising

How every time they surprise me

When I wake up and rise

To find my life empty 

Empty wakes

Empty Takes

And fakes everything ever said 

Why  

Lies 

The hurt

The cries

These sadden eyes close 

For you

For them

How could I possibly defend

Against something I never see
