The Art of Being Broken

Undeniably Shattered

By Rowan Finley Published 7 years ago 1 min read

The Art of Being Broken

The Act of Having Spoken

Must Admit that it is Hard

Hearts are Charred

Speak and Be Known

Speak and Be Grown

Bare Your Shattered Heart

This...This is a True Start

It's Okay to Not Be Okay

For in This Life We Pray

He Was For Us

Yet for More We Lust

For More We Long

Knowing Not Why it is Wrong

The Art of Being Broken

Brought a Healing Token

The Final Word

Covered Now Thus Gird

Clothed and Mended

Souls Perfectly Tended
