"A Hole I Can't Fill"

There's a hole I can't fill--

And it's so crazy deep.

And the more I try to explore it--

The more that I weep.

There's a hole I can't fill--

No matter how hard I try.

And the more I reach for it--

The more that I cry.

There's a hole I can't fill--

And it's tearing me apart.

The more I try to explore it--

The more it breaks my heart.

"Broken Fragments"

These are my broken fragments--
Limb from limb,
And torn apart.

These are my broken limbs--
Bone from bone,
And misplaced about.

These are my broken bones--
Piece by piece,
And all worn out.

These are my broken pieces--
Here and there,
And scattered all about.

Here's my broken heart--
Harden and blackened,
Until it rots out.

"It's All Left Broken"

A broken heart,
A broken mirror,
Trying to fix it?
Leave it broken.

Pick up the pieces?
Or leave them scattered?
Put myself back together?
Or does it matter?

Try again?
Maybe tomorrow?
Maybe then,
I'll lose my sorrow.
