![]() Torn HandsA Poem by Henry Martinez![]() Lyrics to a song I'm composing.![]() These torn hands, they make me, they betray me, forsake me- Don't trust me, like a magician, I only show you facades- My blood could be unreal, bleed only to conceal all my lies- Honey, these torn hands, Soft with kindness, Uneven nails, inconsistent; cut up, scarred from life- I can do it all, I can fail in all, But these hands keep playing- Chord after chord, the embodiment of humans, Kind, passionate; their fickle nature, selfishness They can do everything They'll save the world; they'll rip the life out of you; they'll heal a broken heart, I can do anything.
