Author's Note: At some point we have met or will meet a person that is broken and does not believe they are capable of being loved. Because they are in that mindset it is all the more important to show them what love is and what kindness is. The last thing we want to see is the sadness that is in my poem, "Broken and Defeated." Remember A little bit of love can go along way.
She once hid in smoke that stung her eyes,
As she fought for herself and agonized
As she fought for herself and agonized.
What did she do to deserve such a wreck,
Her heart was torn and so was her check.
Her heart was torn and so was her check.
She floated on a glasses of iced champagne,
Stuck in a tizzy of weakness and shame.
Stuck in a tizzy of weakness and shame.
She tried to amend the things she had done;
Turn her life towards the rising sun
Turn her life towards the rising sun.
Alas, the deed she never completed,
So she hid in the dark broken and defeated.
So she hid in the dark broken and defeated.
Now she cries herself to sleep at night,
Dwelling on memories of be-night.
Dwelling on memories of be-night.
