The Devastation of the Broken

Sudden movement of my heart, a shattered piece of art, Broke me apart from the start…rolling in the inner death-cart Heartrate going sky high — I won’t lie nor can I deny that life cuts deep like a knife I don’t know why I want to cry all my life, still wanting to live happy than die in strife I seek love, care and approval from the shadows instead Of seeking help from on High in dread…there’s no bitter tears left to shed But, I feel this bitter regret of losing You who comforts Me in a state of bewilderment, feeling close to nothing Then, I am calm and reserved and shut out everything It’s fate that you and I are on a date of quietude clearly I will believe and help myself through these trials of plenty Left behind are the devastation of the broken…where have you been? Their uncruel words are left in the windy dust, muffled and unspoken Found solace in the muses of the bard from deep down within… Yet, shame embraced me, never leaving my presence again and again and again I’m echoing empathy your way…again Although I lost the love cradled within, I shelter you from the rain You left us in the dust of time, broken Like the devastation of the broken, we are feeling this numbing pain Don’t come back to try to mend me now You put the candlelight out in my life Won’t you come undone with us somehow? You shut me out with petrifying strife I keep burning on like the passionate fire in this empire Of the once-kindled desire of the broken and their fears We are so far away, yet so close — I do simply admire The fact that I’m not drowning in tension-whelmed tears My soul is wandering in the deserty outskirts I feel this heartless hopelessness that still hurts Me as I run this race with or without you, keeping pace This pain keeps on churning like the waves of the sea that’s without a trace I’m the rain that keeps falling drastically upon your burning, gracious embrace I listened to the rhythm of your heart I took it and wore it like my work of art I glistened like the moonshine upon a rocketship I sold my soul to the angels above — had to get a grip Left behind are the devastation of the broken…sunk down like a ship Their uncruel words are left in the windy dust, muffled and unspoken Unguarded by the corridor of their companionship as their hopes RIP Shame embraced me, never leaving my presence again and again and again I’m echoing empathy your way…again Although I lost the love cradled within, I shelter you from the rain You left us in the dust of time, broken Like the devastation of the broken, we are feeling this numbing pain Don’t come back to try to mend me now You put the candlelight out in my life Won’t you come undone with us somehow? You shut me out with petrifying strife My fire ablaze reduced me to mere dust…due to my remorseless, hideous lust My darling, I am lost without you near, so bring me to the light as you truly must For, the shadows consume me…as well as my headspace I can’t put out the drastic fire of leading you on There’s a calling for peace to set us all free from disgrace I bred this sorrow for so long now till I’m gone, So believe and receive blessings underneath the lies From dusk to dawn, don’t leave with our vain goodbyes For our sake and our sake alone, roam the enlightening pathway of the Lord of Accord Left behind are the devastation of the broken…beaten down by the cruel, senseless sword Their uncruel words are left in the windy dust, muffled and unspoken Left behind like the devastation of the broken…eaten up by muses that they addictively hoard Shame embraced me, never leaving my presence again and again and again I’m echoing empathy your way…again Although I lost the love cradled within, I shelter you from the rain You left us in the dust of time, broken Like the devastation of the broken, we are feeling this numbing pain Don’t come back to try to mend me now You put the candlelight out in my life Won’t you come undone with us somehow? You shut me out with petrifying strife I didn’t mean to lead you on I’m nervous to say the least, despite my broken pride I won’t give up on you, hon I’m anxious to pay attention to the beast inside… Me and my misery kept company with my fearless cheer, though doubt is like a clock that chimes I feel like I want to crawl away and die sometimes… Can’t you see the devastation of the broken That are down and about, committing several crimes? I look up to Him who listens to our cries again But, don’t take me away from my sanity please Free me from this cage of captivity at ease
