For You

For You 

Brenna Beddia

 

Shards of glass spray on the floor 

Much like a rainstorm 

Broken glass on the floor by my bed… 

Your eyes well up in tears 

Dropping to your knees you hold the bottle tight to your chest 

Every time I try to stand that’s when I fall… 

Looking to the left you see what you’ve always feared 

A corpse like body looking back at yourself 

There’s a darkness to the shadow on the wall 

The person you thought you would never become is now created

Regret fills the void of who you once were 

Sometimes I’ve lost you 

Sometimes I’ve won 

And this time you lost this battle within yourself
