I am like a wire
You cannot make me rip
But you can still cut me to pieces with
Just a tiny snip

I am like a scissors
I cut away from love
‘Fore it has a chance to fall apart
And leave me in the dust.

I am like a shadow
I always will be there
But no one seems to ever see me
I guess they do not care

I am like a crystal
Beautifully fragile
All that anyone does is break me
But I can only smile

I am like a prisoner
Locked away in my heart
I cannot let someone see me cry
Keep my tears in the dark

I am like a liar
Not ‘like’ – I really am
I lie so I don’t make you feel bad
My lies build up a dam

I am like a river
Pushing against a wall
One day I will shatter my thick dam
... All I can do is fall ...
Yeah so anyway this was kinda a rant/feels dump poem thingy.

I'm gonna be at debate camp all week, so idk if I will be able to get on here very often.

The verse syllable pattern goes 6,6,9,6. Odd, yes I know.

Enjoy I guess? Sorry this was pretty angsty.
