The hurt in my heart has subsided
But my attentions been divided
Is it searching for something
Or that I’ve been shattered
It`s a quarter to the hour
She asks whats the matter
But my heart almost stops to tick
Theres my brain on the floor
My arm on the ceiling fan
And on my dresser I see my hand
I`m scattered around the room
In an illness filled doom
I think I need a broom
To assemble all the pieces
I use some glue
And masking tape
But the darkness lets me know
It cant help but grow
A thick vine that borders the edges of all the pieces
The vine cant be cut
And others say so what
The pieces surround me
With instability all around me
I blankly stare at the light
And ask god not why tonight
But why my life
