Broken In Me Reigns

Broken In Me Reigns There is a place from deep within where I hide my hearts pains. A darkened room off by itself where the broken in me reigns. The hinges all rusted in place where seldom is love spoken. Still the hurts they come and go the windows are all broken. On rainy days it seems set free those memories all roam. Then late at night again alone it seems they all come home. There were times much younger then I couldn't stop them but I'd try. Older now and wiser too I hang my head and cry. For you can't let go of certain things that life has put you through. It's just no use to let go when it's holding on to you. So if you see I've lost my smile tears are what remains. It's just I've slipped off by myself where the broken in me reigns. Edwin C Hofert
