Broken


I'm tired and worn out like a slave woman's hands who has worked to the bone, I love you but you ignore it like a baby when you tell them to stop.... Why are you so blind? When I want to be your light, sight all the above... I care for you beyond what this world can give us... I'm a confused child lost in the world without a mother, an abandoned daughter walking the streets at night.... I guess I'm unworthy to be your king like treason against your love... All I can do is fall back and the ground stall catch me; only to leave me dusty and dirty with war scars.... I cut you, you cut me deeper, we're not perfect but we're perfect together as a whole... Now you’re gone and I'm left in this eerie mood... Unsure of my next move but this isn't a chest game; it's about what's beating in my chest for you... My heart.
