Fragile Broken Beauty

faceless and bleeding

anonymous and needing

someone, something unattainable

this feeling is becoming unmaintainable

got my eyes locked on to a prize well out of grasp

got my heart on my sleeve again, should have been able to catch

that mistake before I made it again

but it's my failure, it's my path

to see the broken ones, and want to lend a hand

to see the broken ones, and get attached

to see the fragile ones, and want to make them strong

to see the fragile ones, and want to hold them close

but nothing fragile can ever be near me and survive

all the broken find the beauty in me

and all the broken see the yearning in me

but they find that they aren't the answers to the questions I'm asking

that they aren't the ones who can fill the hole

in my heart and in my mind
