Dear Broken Self Once, you stood tall, with joy and grace, Chasing dreams, a warm embrace. Loved ones by your side, never to fall, Life was grand, you had it all. But now you're lost, alone and broken, Left with words unspoken. Life's falling apart, your heart unopened, A sad face, pain unspoken. Yet know that your brokenness need not last, It's not set in stone, the pain will pass. And as you sit quietly, know that you're not alone, For hope and healing can still be sown. So dear Broken Self, hold on tight, the darkness will fade, and the future is bright. You will rise again, with all your might, and once again, your smile will shine bright.
