THE BROKEN ONES



Source

The broken ones are amongst us
The ones with no love and no trust
You see us everyday
The people who live in this world of grey

We walk round with cracked hearts...
Crushed hope and useless parts
You ignore us and say we're fine
While we crumble and die inside

Are we really adults
Or broken children in grown up bodies
Some people run off and join cults
Others just have Overflowing cups filled with worries

Society does not want our growth
Our eternal downfall, its undying oath
Optimism: a word impossible to recall
Standing 5ft tall in a world that sees you 6ft small

Hovering like dark shadows
We are cold and unamused
Dull and colored with sorrow
Looking new but feeling used

Biting the bullet becomes an option
A fitting end at this junction
But this world won't let us depart
Because dying is easy, living is the hard part


That's it for today guys, so if you liked it then please
