Broken Heart
Marsh Shugart 1985
I wish you could see my pain
amongst the other things buried in my brain.
This place I’ve already left while you were unaware.
Though I might have been slightly unprepared.
I flew.
I fought and found no joy.
I leapt.
I tried yet more of my soul did cry.
Red filled my eyes not with love but with disdain.
for I knew this piece I could not obtain.
So here I will stay.
Here I will just stay and let it rain.
