Um..hello I guess sooooo.... this this my second poem. It's about the empty feelings we're incapable of avoiding. I think being broken is not a problem....avoiding it and trying to hide it is.We're all broken,that's how the light gets in.😊  Some of us hide our brokeness others go insane trying to fill it...and a small few write about it hoping it will leave them;that group of foolish writers are poets like you and me.Enjoy.

I sit and say nothing
But I'm thinking of thousands of words
I think of all the flaws I have
And how I'm never good enough

About how bad I am at being happy
About how to ask for help and act normal
About how I'm always depressed
About how to act decent and formal
( not the way I want to express myself)

Be glad you never hear me
Pointing at my wrongs
That you will never hear me cry behind
closed doors and all my favorite songs

It hurts to be your own enemy
Just thought you should know
I'm all broken because of me
And it's a scar I can't even show

We all are afraid of being broken
That we'll never be the same
But my dear you always forget
It's the cracks from which the light seeps in

So I thought; if you're broken
That if you're blue
Maybe  you'd find comfort in knowing
That's it's ok... I am too.
