Broken Inside
We’re all a little broken inside –
No one a whole piece intact.
Namely due to the passage of time –
No one safe from the cracks.
Everyone’s lives so picture-perfect –
I stare up at the dark sky tonight,
The stars lighting up the moon,
Only seeing the side that’s bright.
If you want me to pretend,
I promise I can do just fine.
It’s probably best anyways
Not to risk crossing another line.
