a broken heart,
cracked along the middle,
torn on the inside,
scratched on its border,
bashed on the surface,
a battered soul,
in pieces it remains,
bleeding,
weeping,
sobbing in pain,
yearning for a kind person,
to hug it,
to love it,
to care,
to give it warmth,
encouragement,
hope,
life,
yes, it wants life,
its cold and and wet,
in a dark rainy world,
it wants warmth and comfort.
