I Am a Lamb

My busted life- cracked and hollow, Drowned too deep to find air or light A thousand paths, but none to follow (Don't let me fall from Heaven's height!) Ripped to shreds and bound in beds, I cannot fathom who I am Lost in Lies and cold, grey skies- I am a helpless, little Lamb *Make Me Feel You Contest Entry Author: JustThatArchaicPoet
