Breaking the Broken

by Gabe Zamora

Beaten and bruised,
It will all heal.
Broken and battered,
You will be mended.
Bleeding and blind,
Light can be found.

Under it all
we all live a lie
happy and sad
we all are going to die

Shattered and shaking,
We find a way out.
Sunken and solemn,
We laugh with friends.
Sorrow and sadness,
Picked up off the floor.

one life to live
live how you please
you only get one
so live it at ease

Giddy and great,
crying yourself to sleep.

There are more words that define sorrow and hatred, along with pain and angst, than there are words that describe happy and warm feelings. break the broken. lets make some new words.

Thought provoking expression of the struggle that is life and the pleasure that is life! At times contradictory. (Personally I have found being grateful brings more peace than harbering bad feelings from whatever source.)
