Shattered
(Inspired by PositivelyDazed 's Broken Hope,
a book I've read three times already)
Two boys, two opposite worlds
Theo : I just want to be left alone
Keegan : I've been alone all my life
Theo : Sometimes, I don't like my friends
Keegan : Often, I have no friends
Theo : My family annoys the hell out of me
Keegan : My father is hell.
Theo : The school adores me
Keegan : The school ignores me
Theo : Then I met him
Keegan : Then I met him
Theo : I was scared to face the truth
Keegan : I faced the truth but I'm still scared
Theo : I never thought it's a He
Keegan : I never thought it's him
Theo : The loner at the back
Keegan : The rich popular jock
Theo : I saw his face and I know
Keegan : I look at his eyes in awe
Theo : Who would have thought?
Keegan : Who would have thought?
Theo : I will fall
Keegan : I've already fallen
Theo : I will love...
Keegan : My heart's already stolen...
Theo : You
Keegan : By you
Theo : When all hope is lost
Keegan : When all hope is broken
Theo : When the world hates "we"
Keegan : When the world hates me
Theo : I am here
Keegan : You are there
Theo : And I will still
Keegan : Learn to feel
Both : Your love
And together, they are free.
