BROKEN

I think that I am broken:

Like eggshells hitting concrete

Or a glass mirror splitting;

Bad luck pooling at at my feet.

/\/\

I think that I am broken:

Like a clock with faulty gears,

Strings snapped on my guitar,

Music silenced by my tears.

/\/\

I think that I am broken:

Like promises made then lost.

My hopes in shattered pieces,

My heart buffeted and tossed.

/\/\

Can broken dreams be mended?

Can a heart reset, regrow?

Can a life find new direction?

Can I heal? I do not know.

/\/\

Your friendship's my salvation,

Your loyalty makes me whole.

Gluing my fractured psyche

And mending my broken soul.

/\/\

Some say time's the only healer

And new love will bring me bliss

But all I know is you're here, my friend,

And your love is the greatest gift.
