Broken and Unbroken

I’m broken, shattered to pieces.
No one sees me.
No one hears me.
Trapped and lonely 
In this world
Beginning to wonder if anyone
Actually cares.
Screaming as loud as the seas will roar.
Finding my place through that open door.
Whispering to him
The secrets I have 
Are secrets no more.
Silently sitting in a back corner,
Knowing my voice is nothing to honor.
All at once
I’m where I should be.
My pieces aren’t shattered,
And I’m not broken anymore.

Serenity - Sounds like you are turning it all around - Good for you "Stay Strong inside for those you love always - That is all thats real in this life - Everything else is just an illusion that changes with the hands of time" - God Bless, MJ
