The Broken Man

I can't believe it went this far,

Hurting myself for the sake of pleasing you,

Dead inside, just an empty shell, a slave,

Pain I hold and it's all for you.



We were one of a kind but now I'm lost,

Trapped in this darken void once called a soul,

Sealed shut with chain and lock,

Why do you torment me so?



Drowning in my river of tears,

I gasp for air as you let me drown,

Begging for release from all my fears,

As you giggle and push my head down.



I'll cut your grasp off one day,

So I can breathe the air of joy,

And remember what it was like not to say,

Why are you using me as a toy?



Until that day I'm stuck with this sickness,

This disease dependence and instability,

I'm stuck in my torture and darkness,

With lack of love, and beauty.

To my friend, I hope you get out of this soon...
