***Please note this is not how I am feeling at this time.***
I am broken.
Fragile heart
listless soul
lost
broken
destroyed.
I am broken.
Tears
crystal shatters
falling at my feet
no longer does it pain me
for there is nothing
a black void
where once there was hope.
I am broken.
Cold I have become
realizing there is no love
not a shred to be found
within this being.
I am broken.
Survivor
a past so bleak
so brutal
that I hide from it
only forward will I go.
I am broken.
Gathering
tethering
some semblance
of reality.
I am broken
but know
I should never give up hope.

The Wonderful and Wacky World of One Single Mom 
Nicely penned and expressed Jay-lyn. I feel sure many can relate to the sentiments written about here – l know l can relate to that from my yesterday’s. We are all broken, sadly the very shape of our world doesn’t help to nurture us, but l am glad that you are well currently and of course hope is a many splendoured thing 🙂

Never give up hope. I’m glad it doesn’t reflect how you currently feel (apart from the hope bit), long may that be the case. Great poem. 🙂

It is a wonderful poem, full of hurt and sadness and that little glimmer of hope at the end. I’m happy this is not your current state 💕
