broken

a poem about feeling lost in this ride known as life

Sometimes you feel so lost and empty;

so broken beyond repair,

so gone and lonely that

no one can see inside you anymore,

if there is even anything left to see.

I feel that everything good has leaked out,

and just the bad is left to keep.

there is nothing left that is decent here.

my soul has made a descent

into the depths;

of all of the hellbent.

redemption has come to late

and this soul we will foresake.

omens speak of the worst sort;

of things to come.

this being has been here so long

and nothing of any purpose will ever come.

cut the ties now, cut them quick with this empty vessel you must do.

anything left attached to one in this damnation evil will surely come to.

a miracle it would be

if one day this trecherous soul would be free

for if this day did in fact come

than all who are pure and good would surely rot and suffocate.

    Want to know what is not only “decent,” but quite incredible. Your art, your poetry and the mind body and spirit that created them. Look inside, see what reflects back to yourself, what is told to you reflects nothing but your laughter.
