A Woman Broken

A time and place where darkness seems to be the only embrace you feel

Beating heart red as blood

Full of pain and sorrow

And tears of agony stain my face

Unable to face myself, I hide away

Locking away any part of my mind

Which lies on the edge of a knife between sane and insanity

Faking it until I make it to a world before me

Unaware of how broken I truly am

Invisible to the people of everyday

Wounded and scarred a battle of self

A scream into the abyss

A silent cry into the night

A woman to the world

Secretly a little scared girl just wanting to be saved

But for now alone I walk

Holding out for that glimmer of hope

To mend my shattered soul

And an embrace to heal a heart that feel like it’s barely beating.
