Shattered By Erin Juliet McCleery
I am distraught and heavy, a boulder dropped from far above,
I broke into pieces faster than I could recover,
There's a 1000 pound weight hanging on my heart,
Im sweaty, tired and overstrung,
A sharp blade sliding down into my gut,
It carves through my rib cage carving me like a deer,
Gutted and defeated,
An empty carcass bleeding and receding,
A searing pain creates a knot in my throat,
Drowning as though I fell off a rocking boat,
I thought I could defeat it, I thought i could be stronger than the bond between mother and son, but
I miss you more than you can ever know,
Depression flows a darkness in a room all my own,
A prison cell with potential to become a tomb,
Loved ones try to enter,
Are you okay?
NO! I gave my heart away,
Can't you see the fire burning through my scars?
How about weight tearing me down by my heart?
Can’t you see I’m cut open, damaged and undone?
This cage i sit in is about to explode,
This is the pain of a mother without he
