Broken

Broken

There are times I wish only to scream

Stifled, shut-down, unable it seems

Anger and hurt inside rage

like an animal trapped and caught in a cage

Emotion intense from love to hate

one I embrace the other devastates

I wish this way I didn’t feel

my true frustration I try and conceal

but once again it’s all revealed.

I know to hurt me is not your intent

but how do you manage it and so frequent?

I’m sorry are simply words left unspoken

but God, O God heals me when I am broken.
