Shattered

When you’re the last one picked For the team. When a nightmare takes over A dream. When a friend commit's Suicide. When you witness a Homicide. When you get hauled off To jail. When you realize you created Your hell. When your lover hooks up with Your friend. When you recognize your running Against the wind. When you have to bury your Mom. Then your brother who Survived Vietnam. Every time you visit the grave Of a brother or sister. When you see your heading for Disaster. When someone lies and you know The truth. When the dentist says I have to Pull that tooth. When you hear you have, Stage four cancer. When you realize God has No answer. When your brother has a Stroke. When you realize it's not a Joke. When you see your child in Pain. When you realize you're too Blame. When you’re the only one who Was plastered. When life leaves you broken And shattered. Turbo1904 ?
