Regret has settled into my abyss
Broken is how I feel today
It’s been a few long weeks of gloom
And it looks like this phase is here to stay

I roam the streets with an open wound
And sometimes someone heals it up
It helps me mend my broken heart
And it temporarily fills up my empty cup

I am the gap I hope to fill
But I don’t feel I have it left in me
To heal myself and stand back up
So I give up, and just let it be.

Perhaps someday I will find the strength
To reclaim what is meant to be
Perhaps someday I will fill my cup
With courage that is somewhere hidden in me.
