On Sudden Bursts Of Literary Inspiration

I Am Broken

by: christian tolentino

I am broken... like an arrow split in two.

My heart I laid in the open

Only to be broken anew...

I am broken... like shattered glass on the floor.

Every piece, every fragment,

Hurts me to the core

I am broken... my wings have been clipped.

The wind beneath it taken.

Nothing left to keep.

I am broken... I feel incomplete.

Like the stars without their glitter,

Like the sun without its heat

I am broken... I have left my guard down.

To love I have fallen.

My soul left to drown.

I am broken, I will not be the same.

I fell in love again.

I have me to blame.

I am broken... my love went away.

Her love for some one's greater.

Said she could not stay.

I am broken... What will I do?

My heart is bleeding,

My soul black and blue.

Will I love again? Someday, I hope.

But not 'till the time,

The time I have coped.

And as of the moment,my heart is torn.

Broken am I,

bleeding,hurting and scorned.
