I'M A LITTLE BROKEN...

I'M A LITTLE BROKEN...

I'm a little broken..
Since childhood,
secrets buried deep
where wounds go
to heal..
Since adolescence,
when memories still
return to echo through
canyons of mind
and heart ..
Since young adulthood,
where the foundation
of a whole new life
built a marriage, a
family with blood,
sweat and tears..
Now my older life..
I wonder why it all
passed so quickly ..
Yes, I'm a little broken..
My shoulders became
bent from the load of worry,
sacrifices, labor and lifting..
I've called upon the Rock,
my Savior, my Lord..
When I feel like I'm a
little broken..
I always cast myself upon
the one who mends and
heals all the broken pieces..
