Broken

And Hidden

By Autumn BallPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

No one died.

But I feel like every part of me has

I can't feel anymore

No tears left to cry and no heart left to mend.

I fell in love with the thing I always feared most,

Someone like my father.

Broken with nothing left to mend into their soul

No matter how hard I've tried.

I've given endless chances to this love,

The love that has killed me from inside out,

But yet I'm unable to let it go in hope.

Hope to get better even if I'm afraid.

Afraid to sleep at night because the demons may drown me

Weigh on me with bricks that eventually cause an explosion.

Not an explosion of passion but an explosion of unknown danger.

I loved to love you but you never let me love you enough.

Nothing has ever been enough.

And now since you were broken,

You've broken me.
