Cracks Appear And It All Falls Down. Poem by Tamsin Burnett

Looking in the mirrors glass trying to see inside
I turn out the light and in the black I see what it's like inside
Turning on the bare lightbulb The harsh light burns my eyes
Swollen from crying away from your gaze
Away from warmth of you.

Cracks appear it all falls down
shattered it splits like light on the water
Life and my heart
my heart and my life
I love you I need you don't go.

Whirling around in a storm of emotions
one minute I up the next I'm down
I can't get much lower I can't get much higher
Wheres the inbetween?

Cracks appear it all falls down
shattered it splits like light on the water
Life and my heart
my heart and my life
I love you I need you don't go.

I cry as I laugh this acheing inside
I'm yerning for you and your love
I dare to dream and hope inside
That you love me you want me with you.

Cracks appear it all falls down
shattered it splits like light on the water
Life and my heart
my heart and my life
I love you I need you don't go.

I dare to hope that your gentle hand
will catch me when I fall
I dare to dream that you and I
Could get through all together.

Cracks appear it all falls down
shattered it splits like light on the water
Life and my heart
my heart and my life
I love you I need you don't go.

Your never here for me anymore
I'm hurt and rejected and lost
I need you now yet your not here
When I don't need you there you are.

Cracks appear it all falls down
shattered it splits like light on the water
Life and my heart
my heart and my life
I love you I need you don't go.

I never really saw you until you left
I never really needed you until you went
I never knew this love
This love i feel for you
Was this strong this powerful
Until your gone.

Cracks appear it all falls down
shattered it splits like light on the water
Life and my heart
my heart and my life
I love you I need you don't go.
