My heart and the clinking sounds in my chest
I hate to tell you this
But I am broken
I'm not who I wish I was
And I've tried to piece my heart together
But it just won't work
Because there are too many
pieces missing
And I'm done wasting time
Because those flimsy scotch tape lies
Won't fix anything
Because I'm breaking more each day
And I'm running out of lies to tell
My roll of tape is empty
And I'm done hiding
I'm done being ok
And I'm done being perfect
Because I swear
That's all that people see
But I toss and turn at night
And nothing feels right
Because the pieces of my heart
Make clinking sounds as I move
And my mind is so tired
It forgets to pretend to be ok
Feelings. Feelings. feelings. So creative the clicking sound your heart makes. That last line. Beautiful.
