Built broken

I think maybe I was just built broken,

Built unfixable, built incapable,

Of trust, happiness, of love. Forsaken.

Years of betrayal, I'm not savable.

Every plea for unconditional love,

has left me barren, drowned another

piece of me, now no sun shines from above,

I'm cold. I yearn, deeply, but I'm smothered.

Your calm grasp makes my doubts fade, disappear.

Your warm hold brings me firm reassurance.

You aren't trying to fix me, but rather,

guide me back to the road, give me balance.

And I whisper, scared, never let go.

You hold me tight, you will never let go.
