"When the rich wage war its the poor who die."














- Jean-Paul Sartre.


You were my heart,
you were my soul.
I was the horse you were the cart.
Trapped inside a bowl,
Sides coated with slippery misery.
With a lid made of heartbreak trapping me in.
You were the glue to my puzzle,
The clay of my sculpture,
If you vanished I would fall apart.
You were my mind,
You were my sanity.
Without you I don't know what I'll be.

Sometimes, that girl who seems so strong, who never lets what people say bother her, who smiles and laughs with her friends all the time, is really the girl who, deep down, is falling to pieces.
