Your broken to pieces
Your thrown to parts,
Your life is in shambles,
And what’s LEFT of your heart.
Your tattered and torn, and shattered and worn
Your broken to pieces, and pieces to mourn.
Your flame of pride, extinguished
Like a torch, smothered down
And now you relinquish,
Your righteous crown.
Your smile used to be, MILES wide
But now it’s a frown, and your face can’t hide
All of that shame and incompetence,
Now you won’t pay your self one cent of penance.
The shackles of sorrow, adorn your feet
A thousand tons weight, shows your defeat.
The chains of pain, around your breast
Drag on, tired soul, you cannot find rest.
Your broken to pieces
Your thrown to parts,
Your life is in shambles,
And what’s LEFT of your heart.
Broken to pieces, ground to bits
Crumbled to ashes, as are your wits.
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust,
The chains of pain, are starting to rust.
Smashed to nothing, ‘till your soul finds respite
In the church of grief, you’re the acolyte…
Your tattered and torn, and shattered and worn
Your broken to pieces, and pieces to mourn.
Bound to walk on, your endless stride
Gallop on, your endless ride
Broken to pieces, torn in two
But never forget, there is STILL hope for you.
In your darkest hour, there is always hope,
In the church of hope, you just might be the pope.

Justin,
This poem has really touched a deep part of my heart today. My friends have been treating me like crap and they have just shattered my heart and soul...I'm tired of giving in to them, I'm tired of being tolerant...you're convinced me tonight that there is still hope...I'm going to make it. God's not through with me.
Thanks so much for helping me realize that today...
The best of luck forver.
Always
Becky
