Broken life

Broken by decisions of a tragic life,

Skies so grey, it seems almost night,

The strings that hold us up 

Feel as if they’ve been cut,

Eyes wide open but the mind is shut.

Desperate and on bended knees 

Holding out a hand,

Trying in the best way to understand,

Why it is in life that makes it so hard,

Broken down houses,

Broken down cars,

Breaking into pieces 

Broken forlorn hearts.

Life full of shadows

Anxiety and angst,

A fetid feeling of existence 

Of which the residue is rank,

Experiences so limited

By a life lived blank.
