Broken
Author’s Note – Please read before starting the story
Part I: Broken
It starts with
One thing, I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter
how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed
this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable
thing
Watch it fly by as the
pendulum swings
Watch it count down to
the end of the day
The clock ticks life
away
It’s so unreal
Didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right
out the window
Trying to hold on but
didn’t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything
inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me
will eventually be a memory of a time when
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it
doesn’t even matter
I had to fall to lose
it all
But in the end it
doesn’t even matter…
Part II: Blind
One thing, I don’t know
why
Doesn’t even matter how
hard you try
Keep that in mind, I
designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you
were mocking me
Acting like I was part
of your property
Remembering all the
times you fought with me, I’m surprised
It got so far
Things aren’t the way they
were before
You wouldn’t even
recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me
back then
But it all comes back
to me
In the end
You kept everything
inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me
will eventually be a memory of a time when
I tried so hard and got
so far
But in the end it
doesn’t even matter
I had to fall to lose
it all
But in the end it
doesn’t even matter…
Part III: Breathless
I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can
go
And for all this
There’s only one thing
you should know
I tried so hard and got
so far
But in the end it
doesn’t even matter
I had to fall to lose
it all
But in the end it
doesn’t even matter
