Broken

You do not know who you are but I do. I know what you did to me; you broke me little by little. You saw something in me that was broken but never fixed it. You caused me to fall but never knew or seen me finally rise.

I have been broken; I have lost my hope, courage, strength, love, and the will to keep trying. I have learned when people break you; you must break yourself even if it hurts. To be broken is to lie motionless on this pile of words, action, and scenes; listening and watching over and over again darkness surrounding you and not be able to do anything.

But then something breaks through that wall of darkness for you and will shine light on to you. Than you see inside yourself and watch yourself be fixed. Anything can slowly fix you someone you care about, something you want to achieve, or even realizing that what people do around you does not matter.

Once you think you are fixed you are not. You will be broken again but you know you can fight back this time. Once someone is broken you will never find all the pieces to fix them. The last thing you need to fix your broken self is you and only you.
