Staring back at me
Wondering what he's thinking
Wondering what he sees
Someone I have never met
Somewhere far overseas
He spoke to me straight from his heart;
He spoke of breaking free
From the confines of his own mind
Of which I can relate
From the bitter edge of despair
To a place where he feels safe
He's teetering on the edge of sanity
He's fighting for his life
I want to wrap him in my arms
Glue the fragments of his soul
Make up the jigsaw that is his heart
