the heart is fragile there is a reason its shielded by a cage the heart needs the eyes of a person who knows love so do not hand such a delicate thing into the hands of the blind

My Broken Life I am a mask, trying to conceal all the pain I'm in. On the surface I may seem perfectly happy, with a job, home, and family. However, I can say with certainty that my life is far from perfect. I compartmentalize my actions based on the needs of the moment. I am removed from it all, coping. What I carry around inside me, not being okay, is almost too much to bear...but I do it. The problem is me. It's always been me. Memories alone can break a person's spirit. I think if I committed suicide that I wouldn't go to heaven. The one place I believe I would be happy. If there is a purgatory, I am in it. It's called life. My broken life. Randy Mcpeek

My Broken Life
She's beautiful She's old enough to be taken seriously And young enough to have new ideas. She is happily married. She has a wonderful husband And everything one could ask for. I am not so beautiful Old enough to be held responsible Young enough to be ridiculed I have never been in a relationship I have no significant other I am lacking in so many ways. I sin Every day. I am broken All over And I can't Seem to fix it. I feel like they almost Don't even need me anymore I just wish Wish that I could Be as perfect as her. Maybe I'll leave. Maybe I'll never come back. Maybe no one will notice.
