Shattered Remains

I sit here in the dark and stare,
At the shattered remains of my heart.
Broken and crushed too many times,
These pieces will always be apart.
I have tried my very hardest,
To be strong and not break down,
But theres nothing to hold onto,
So I tumble to the ground.
There is no fight left in me,
There is no reason to try,
I am weak and I am pathetic,
When I break down and cry.
Close your eyes for a moment,
So I can put on a smile,
So I can swallow down my painful screams,
So I can look happy for a while.
I will hide this pain from you,
And you will never see,
In a box beside my bed,
Are the shattered remains of me.
