Broken Compass

Listen

When I say you are wrong.

Listen

When you fabricate falsities

just to prove a point.

Does it sound better in your mind?

Listen

When I tell you you’re a good person,

just a misdirected person.

But don’t worry, you are not alone.

We all have a slightly altered compass rose.

Listen

When everyone around you is speaking

and the world seems to tailspin into oblivion,

and when life leaves you with nothing to say,

Then, you may speak.
