Broken Spirits

by Alicia Crosby

 


Broken spirit left with slaughtered dreams
Calloused and cold
Never trusting anyone because of you
Bitter, rigid, tortured soul
Can't you see the sadness in my eyes
A fairy tale life was once lived
Where hope could last for days
Where dreams could last forever
You were an angel in my eyes,
Incapable of any wrongdoing
But lies and deceit murdered my angel
That image tarnished always
You cheated,
You lied to me
Killing hope like a rainbow pierced by lightning
Shattering love like a broken glass
The cup is half-empty now, never to be half-full again
Innocence lost and I am left
Broken
