Broken Man

By Sweeetsuz

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Poor sad and gentle man, Bruised and sore, by destiny's pall, Life has abused and hurt your soul. Torn and broken, gentle man. You face life with such distrust. Fearing feelings, knowing pain. Lonely, afraid to love again, Afraid, and alone, with your mistrust. Life has dealt a hurtful hand. Relationships crumble, images pale, Withdrawing, from all, afraid to fail. Seemingly well, but a frightened man. Poor sad and gentle worried man. You cannot feel when hearts are frozen. You cannot love when hearts are broken. Cold and frightened gentle man. Poor, sad, and gentle, hungry, man. You're so filled with what you must get, You are consumed with hate and regrets. Unhappy lonely gentle man. Poor saddened, gentle man, So sorely and sadly broken. May not heal. Your heart is broken. Withdrawn from life, gentle man? © on Jul 03 2001 01:03 AM PST   0 • 1
