Shattered
Shattered light
Broken by the darkness of the night
Shattered innocence
I cry to you and ask of you patience
Shattered hopes
So many times being placed on the ropes
Shattered dreams
I wonder why no one can hear my screams
Shattered heart
My world slowly crumbles apart
Shattered soul
A once vibrant life now grown cold
Shattered mind
I wonder how the world can be so unkind
Shattered Life
Take it from me please just turn the knife
Shattered me
A prayer said "Please let this the end be."
Shattered
Broken, bruised, and battered
I offer up a silent prayer
For all those to whom life is not fair.
Shattered lives and shattered hearts
So many people falling from together apart.
