Broken screen
May 21, 2013
They
Expect me
To save them
They see me
As a rock
But I am nothing
But paper
And I fly, as the winds
Blow
I cannot hold up
The world
My intentions are
Long surpassed
I am not strong
Enough
Not brave
Enough
Not good
Enough
And so, if I am
Your refuge
If I am
Your strength
Seek shelter
Elsewhere
Because I'm as useful
As a broken screen
