Broken
Broken
By lady Arabella
Just like when a mirror shatters and the pieces fall away
The we deal with in life can get heavy some days
Trust is fragile and can easily fray
All the colours fade to grey
The world is full of people that are broken
Words to hard to say so they are left unspoken
As humans we stop to stare at our reflection
pretend we are okay because we have learnt the art of deflection
But sometimes the pieces that shatter leave a scar that cuts deep
We all lie wide awake at night unable to sleep
We’re taught that love comes forth like sunshine after rain
But we’re not always taught how to process or heal from pain
Every human sees darkness and we all need a light that guides our way
So whenever you feel broken , speak up and don’t be afraid to say
A listening ear and a helping hand may be all that a person needs
To plant happiness in those darkest seeds
The pieces may not fully repair
But having someone there
helps the cracks to fade just by showing you care
A mirror once broken can piece together a new and safer reflection
Where there isn’t the need for deception or deflection
So learn to stop hiding your imperfections
