Battlefield

Your mouth tastes like regret and pain

In your eyes I see the scars that escaped your body 

I see you flinch when I hold you 

Don't you know all I want is to soothe your pain 

But I can't protect you from the world 

Your battles are your own, just like mine 

Imperfectly, we will fit together someday, like a jigsaw 

Till then I wait for you

Patiently, impatiently...
