Broken

I was broken once But now I'm not I Pray for my innocence Of now I'm not He followed me there And I stood not He took me down And broke my soul He left me there to rot So cold the river runs I float lightly on the current All I seek now is my salvation

And you shall have it. I am amazed at the pain you have been through. I do like and appreciate your poetry. It is a gift for us all. Thank-you. I will read them all as you can see, I am making slow but steady progress. I have to go to our nation's capital next week. But I will be back after that and continue. You are a beautiful spirit.

I like sad poems, Debbie. This one was very interesting and filled with feeling. gosh, it does not relate to the last poem I read about the lost love, does it?

Simply worded, and very descriptive. Most of the time, you don't need a lot of words to express good ideas.
