Break Your Own Heart

(Verse One)

And she's sitting on the ground

when nobody's around

and the sun sets

but she don't move

because how is she 

supposed to leave

when the bottom

is all she knows

(Bridge)

She don't wanna be

the second best

she just wants this burden 

off her chest

and to be wrapped up

in his  arms 

and to hear the words

"I love you"

(Chorus)

but still she thinks 

how can I be loved

this atrocity 

that owns me

I'm the only 

thing I know

that can break their

own heart

(Verse 2)

standing at a broken door

the ceiling staring at the floor

like she stares up at the clouds

and wishing she would 

feel like she's proud

but she don't wanna be

lied to, no more

so if in fact anyone says

that they love her

it'd be a lie

'cause she's so blinded by

her hate

that she can't barely function

at heaven's gate

(Chorus)

but still she thinks 

how can I be loved

this atrocity 

that owns me

I'm the only 

thing I know

that can break their

own heart

(Repeat Bridge)

(Repeat Chorus)

I wish I could write music. The poem moved with a purpose. I like the emotion and the desire in the words. The good description allowed the reader to feel the thoughts and the journey. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
