MY BROKEN HEART
Poetry by Shawn Malzahn
MY BROKEN HEART
My heart is broken,
Twisted and sored.
The pain is so deep,
Please help me my Lord.
I’m trapped in this cage,
This prison called Mind.
Coming and going,
Thoughts of all kind.
These feelings arise,
Compel me to action.
I’m caught in this web,
I call it distraction.
Pleasure and pain,
Some loss and some gain.
I’m tied to this game,
It drives me insane.
Attention unfocused,
Willpower is weary.
I cry out for help,
Yet no one can hear me.
Strong I must be,
For God I must trust.
Please forgive me of sin,
And free me from lust.
Patient I stand,
Still and so silent.
Never ever more,
Shall I be violent.
Peace is the plan,
Love is the goal.
I do what I can,
To uplift my Soul.
