The Cry of A Broken Woman

If heartbreak was a river
Then my life would be the Nile
I have been hurt so many times
It even hurts to smile
Hiding my tears with jokes
And laughter
I retreat into a place
A place long long ago
A place where all of my innocence was
Shattered
Broken
Crushed
Into a million pieces
A million tiny pieces too small to put back together
Thinking about this I cry out
God Why?
Why was I even brought into this earth filled with misery, pain and deceit?
Why did you allow me to live knowing the things I would have to go through?
The hurt that I would have to suffer
The tears that I would have to cry?
Why?
I would be better off dead
No
Better off not being born at all
So I wouldn’t have to feel the pain I feel now
So I wouldn’t have to shed the tears I shed now
So I wouldn’t have to feel
Broken.
