Allowance A life of torture and pain is all that is given to me While rainbows and rainbows are out there However, I cannot reach them While I kindly await for the worst to pass, As sad as it is, I know I will never be okay My heart and my mind are too broken I reluctantly glue them back together, Because they will just break again Must I accept it this way? If only I could hide away, but I can’t hide from my conscience If only I could change what is inside me Must I accept the cycle that is? My own love, my own enemy My own self, my own stranger I had thought it was within us, but it is within me And as I am a part of us, it’s within us While people of greater minds and greater hearts-- Enjoy your lives because you can-- I will just sit in my brokenness
