This Is A Broken Place

This Is A Broken Place

A Poem by Siren

I want to say
a lot of things.

I don't have the words.

I want to do 
a lot of things.

I don't have the means.

I have so many 
reasons why
everything should be

perfect.

At least, on the
outside.

But these walls don't
make this place 

home.

And these letters and 
words don't make this
poetry.
This is a broken place,
where I try
and I pretend
but all the pieces
never
quite
fit.
I don't have the will
to fight
for something that always
keeps moving

further
and
further
away.

Author's Note

Siren
It's really just a frustrated mess of words, but everyone else will be happy that I didn't choose to do something more destructive. Not sure how long my "good behavior" will last though. Thanks for reading, and (more importantly) putting up with my moody and taciturn nature.
