what's worse then broken skin?

broken legs

broken arms

broken bones.

 

things other's had died on 

things others have cried on

things mothers have sighed on

 

guess i'm not like you

haven't felt that, too.

 

what's worse then broken skin

you ask me.

ask me.

 

tell you

tell you

 

i guess i should

i know i could

 

but who would listen.

 

silent scream 

splattered onions

 

deserted islands.

 

stuck out here

for him

 

don't say his name

 

it's like a curse

 

they'll hold me down

 

cover my scream

 

my love isn't whole like hers

hers hasn't been dropped with out hands.

 

who dropped mine

who dropped mine

who dropped me.

 

flying away

standing there.

watching them numbly.

 

what hurts more then broken skin?

you'll get a better answer from her or him.

 

who want's to hear about shattered bowls

or torn clothes

spreading the shards

sweeping the floor.

something always 

 

remaining.

 

 

open my mouth

to tell you my story

 

stop

watching them walk by

 

my mouth closes

you move on.

i stand there.

tell you.

but.

 

who can hear the silent.

 

watch them walk by

 

feeling the feeling

 

so much worse

 

then broken skin.
