Broken Was Fixed


Hopes and dreams,

That always seems,

Out of her reach.

Broken lives,

And stolen Dreams.

Two winged sky roamer,

Surfaces all the envy in her,

Insufficient caged desire.

 

Dawn brings Leather,

On Ebony, rebelling Dorsums.

Remainder?

Locked by Fear,

And drowned by Hope.

Dwelling in Lies.

Sleeping on Tears.

 

Dusk carries the Arôme De

Terreur in its seemingly,

Unending noire glory.

Agony is her sister,

They’ve named her brother Pain.

She is made of Sorrow,

And taken for Broken.

 

She’s Shattered; They think.

In pieces; They believe.

Her history dismissed,

And her Background Forgotten.

She has no one but us,

Her loyalty is forced.

Conquered, she is,

With clenched,

And Iron fist.

 

The others sat and watched,

as the vicious sun cycled.

Hope lost authority,

And followed the single-tailed bull of Agony.

But with the cirque du soleil,

She gained strength with,

Unwavering patience.

She fed her brothers,

Of the same essence.

Hope regained strength.

Broken was fixed.

Tears were dried.

And Pain was mended.

We had lost many battles,

But we rejoiced in Victoire.

For we were the victors of the War.

"We are so much more alive, when we are dying of love." -Celine Dion. I live to see the day when our world is a place where we all feel loved, and accepted. An International Baccalaureate student living in Florida, I'm a passionate music lover and I spend my spare time either reading, writing, or playing the piano. I hope to someday publish some of the short stories, and poems that I've written even though I do not want to pursue a career as an author. I would love to become a lawyer someday, and I work diligently towards that goal everyday day of my life.
