Broken

I do not want to be broken,

To be broken anymore…

Let no words of wrath

Be spoken,

No more evening the score.

Let the truth of love and light

Be spread

That I might calm explore all

The wonders of creation

Waiting just outside my door.

 

Bent and broken I have wandered

In the shadows of the past

Thinking I could not be mended

Since the die had long been cast.

But the play must be rewritten

And the company recast

Til tomorrow is tomorrow

With new questions to be asked.

 

And this I vow as daylight breaks and

I rise up off of the floor.

I will not be broken…

Not be broken anymore.
