Broken Again

crashed down burning
pain denotes yearning
circling down, down, down...
smile turns into a frown
and crying from trying
broken again....

overwhelming never ceases
as i spill out into pieces
and broken is shattered
so much for all that mattered
returns pain in the refrain
broken again...

It isn't so much that I feel it
as much as its stays unfixed
Its not so much that I can't think
its the fact that I stay mixed

spread out in all about,
are many parts of me,
fragments suffering in doubt,
and it's all I can see,
with care and very aware,
Broken again....

only changing into what breaks,
not knowing what it takes,
losing the will to live still,
still becomes a twisted ill,
no ground all around,
broken again...

It isn't so much that I feel it
as much as its stays unfixed.
It's not so much that I can't think,
it's the fact that I stay mixed.


the never ending pain is driving me insane
what spiritually can I gain?

I try to shatter back the latter hac into my soul
pray to God, give the yes nod, and surrender control

It isn't so much that I feel it
as much as its stays unfixed
Its not so much that I can't think
its the fact that I stay mixed
Broken again...

Richard, I feel your pain in this write, my brother. I know how pain can overwhelm but fight it, stay strong, keep believing you're not alone dealing with brokeness. Keep hoping for a better day, ok? And it will come. You can will it by the way you think. Think positive thoughts! God bless and peace, Audrey
