A/N: freeverse written very fast with much sleep deprivation. Please review?
you fell in love with a boy
who loved you back
e a s y p e a s y
(not)
'cause that boy loved you
like a brother loves his sister
a friend loves his bestest friend
and you loved him in the way
that makes you burn inside
makes you w h o l e
he knew you inside-outside
had a key to your heart
(you trusted him with your
wishes/hopes/e v e r y t h i n g)
then one day he left
(all the way to a house the next street over)
with the girl who he did love
in the way that made him burn
(hair flashes r e d r e d r e d)
so little girl,
try and take back your key
lock your heart up ohso tight
because all those
wishes&dreams&everything
will come tumbling out
(too late)
they've c r a c k e d b r o k e n s h a t t e r e d
your heart fell open because a stupid boy
(stupid, wonderful b o y)
forgot to close it
so, little girl
you've got a thousand pieces of glass
and n o t h i n g to put them back together
'cept him
(maybe, hope so...)
you need someone who isn't afraid of
getting hurt
bleeding
that boy who broke them all could
because he knows where all
of your e v e r y thing goes
(inside/outside/upside down)
but he's off playing happy family
with someone who you
(can't) hate
so all of your
e v e r y thing
is gone
you're just a little (too young) girl
with broken dreams
heart fallen open
no one in sight
(stop looking at the past)
there's h o p e s to fill your heart again
d r e a m s to steal out of the sky
and you'll find someone
(him?
he hopes/wishes/dreams)
he'll have the key to your heart
he'll find it
amid a thousand pieces of glass
(those broken wishes, shattered wants)
and it'll be worth more than getting it
for free
(he knows what your heart's worth, little girl)
he'll fight for you
b l e e d for you
glass in his cuts
he'll figure out
where all your
hopes/d r e a m s/everything
goes
&& this time
he'll give you the key to his heart too
(that silly, w o n d e r ful boy)
you hope
(and hope is blue glass)
so forget about that boy
with his happily ever after
beautiful wife
two kids
and look at this boy
(man?)
with his smiles&&laughter
that'll patch you back up
and this one?
he isn't going anywhere
he's found his
e v e r y t h i n g
right here with
you
