Broken

Stephanie Wilson 1990 (Galveston)



As I lay in this dark room broken and alone I wait for you in the dark everyone fears you but I do not I hear you creeping in as the moon comes out I wait for you to show just so I'm not alone to others your a demon but to me your a friend you understand the broken pieces and don't try to put me back together again
