BROKEN


Broken 

I dwell in my loneliness of a broken heart 
My home is where I live with all those memories
This cold pain hits at my heart like clock work 
I but I kept it all to my lonely self 
I never let you see my pain 
even when you walked out on me
I held it all in 

But when night closed in on me my heart started 
to feel the pain 
the cuts you had left on my heart
you left me in a place of gloom
I know somethings are just meant to be 
and somethings aren't like you and me
some summer's ago

You left your trace all over the place 
you left your mark all over my heart
you left my heart in the dark with a broken heart
If you look out side from our home 
You can see the fences the grape-vines ruined all dyed up
The roses lost their colors 
They are all black and dead

But your words are so alive 
running in and out of my mind day and night 
The big tree out side from my window had lost it's beauty 
Lost with time like a said little rhyme of you and I
broken dreams of a place we once had called home

I dwell with a strangely aching heart when you left me
You vanished and left me of your memory's of a forgotten road
Of how much you truly meant to me 
Broken is what I am this cold winter night without you 
by my side is taken another part of me.

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the80's, 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery / Judy Emery
