Bruised and Broken

I'm always fighting for your attention

and I know you know I do

and I've been indulging in your affection

because it's all I had left of you

and I don't think that I'm so perfect

in fact its far from what I feel

so much done to doubt it's worth this

with no time to let myself heal

days you've seen right through me

and nights where you've taken all

I'm not sure what keeps you with me

but if you must go, why stall?

thinking about you always

thinking about somebody else

and working hard to do things always

but always for yourself

I've spent many nights up thinking

and waiting patiently for the sun

I'm through waiting for the light to shine with answers

I'm broken down

I'm done

You were the one.

I'm done.

I'm brusied and broken.

I'm done.
