Once there was a tear Ripping deep to the core of me Puncturing a fragile heart Left torn wide open There once was a fault A fracture in my soul With a break so jagged Even time couldn't heal Vulnerable prey exposed In a world where the hungry Smell the blood of the weak And lunge without second thought And after years of predators Who take their fill and leave As quickly as they attack I've found a safe haven In your arms you hold me so tight That the wounds close And pressed against you I begin to mend |
