Broken

[Silver WInd]

Broken

 

I am broken

you left me this way

now bitter my tears fall

filled with shame

shame that is because of you

I cannot face myself.

I cannot face the world.

I try to hide

but my shadow hunts me down

 

Will anything take away this pain?

The pain you have placed inside?

An ill seed planted

too deep in my mind.

 

Will I be whole again?

Well again?

I no longer remember

the taste of laughter

instead tonic is all I ever

know.

 

For a dreamless sleep

I seek

but some days I wish

never to wake again.

 

I am left on the outside

and I feel accusing eyes

but what was my crime?

 

It was you whom had done this

you stripped me of my worth

you took away my life

now what is left of me?

 

But this shade

of someone else
