SHATTERED

ZIGGY

I fade to black as shadows 

surround my knowing colours

seep to gray and blend with

bland days that linger in my 

head forever unheard 

 

I am the one that wanders from 

the herd alone and lost at any

cost complete within my self brave

yet as brittle as delph that falls from

a broken shelf unnoticed unheard 

 

I am shattered before I fall set to 

pieces before I echo a response yet 

I am the total of my all I resume 

after the decent that broke me 

 

I shall wander on picking up the pieces

of my broken self without help I piece 

my self together all because I know of 

nothing else

    Zigs,
    Your writing speaks to many of us! We can find ourselves in a dark place for various reasons! It can be caused by others or can be self-inflicted! Whatever the reason, we shut ourselves down! No matter how fragile and vulnerable we are, we ask for no help! We embrace our darkness and try to be brave enough to help ourselves and not ask anyone for help no matter how long we stay in that darkness! We want to self heal and show ourselves we can do it!
    CURA TE IPSUM...
