Broken

I feel broke; fix me

I feel lost; find me

I feel hurt; heal me

I'm a mess; sort me out

There's no blood but I swear I'm bleeding,from the inside out,from the outside in.

I feel scared; comfort me

I feel broke; fix me please

I feel wrong; right me

I'm chaotic; calm me

But all you do is leave; leave me

I'm alone; stay

I'm so broken; fix me 

But all you do is leave me

I'm broken; you break me

You break me and you leave

I'm obsessed; free me

I'm infatuated; love me

I'm defined; undefined me

I'm set in my ways; reset me

I feel so broken; please fix me

Stop leaving; don't leave me

I feel so confused; give me clarity

I'm full of words; leave me speechless

I'm full of pain; don't leave me

I'm empty only if you leave me

I'm broken; fix me

I'm unsure; reassure me

I have expectations; meet them

I'm me; reset me

I'm broken; I broke me.

[Lord Kriv]

Throughout the poem you seem to be talking to someone else, " I'm unsure; reassure me".
Seemling telling someone else to assure you, to fix you, to give you clarity as you need help to get out of a dark time along with admitting at the end that you broke you.

A nice telling poem.

[Alessander]

This feels a lot like a break down. So many seemingly random powerful drives and profound emotions erupting.

In some ways it reminds me of Ophelia in Hamlet who essentially went mad and drowned herself over Hamlet who himself had major issues.

In some ways it's a plea, in some way it's a sad soliloquy, in some ways it feels like catharsis, in some ways it feels like a sad song on repeat, where the narrator is despertely trying to break the cycle and "reset".

I find the "broken" lines esp interesting.

"I'm broken; you break me
You break me and you leave"

But then it ends.

"I'm me; reset me
I'm broken; I broke me."

So it kinda goes from outward misery to internal recognition.

Whether that leads to closure and healing is not made clear though. Could. Could relapse back into despair.

Anyhow. Intense confessional poem. Quite emotive on several levels.

Wow that is a powerful piece, and one that I'm in awe of. Your flow, words, and set up were all first rate, and the power of your piece is felt from beginning to end. Great job.

I wish these yearnings get the acceptance and that one doesn't leaves....but the broken will crush into powder like if that one leaves.....
Heart wrenching write!
