Broken

I find myself in this moment
While other moments fade away
Held entranced by the torment
Of self loathing and dismay

Is life supposed to be so hard to bare
What is the purpose in all of this
Do I work hard or idly not care
When is my time to find bliss

Broken
I seem to always be Broken
Broken
Something that can't be fixed
Broken

Empty , drained and so hollow
A mindless creature , a clone
Numb, all I feel is sorrow
All on me for the seeds i've sown

Nothing left , all is faded
Do I accept what is left of me
End of my climb , so jaded
Need this now , too set me free

this reality that at times we fall into the edge of nothingness.. [i did too, how many times] however, it didn't push me more to be stuck on such situation instead what I did is to stand and start again and pray to still thank God of what has been.. isn't it the greatest glory of man isn't in never falling but in rising to each fall.... as the adage says.. it isn;t easy but life is all worth to go on standing and rising.. sad sad sentiments.. hold on to God, as to Him nothing is impossible. :)
