Broken Boy

Another one about my son. I see more of him struggling with the divorce now than I did two years and that scares me a bit.

Your world torn asunder

Scant five years of knowing your place

Not you fault

Not really any one person to blame

Mistakes made by all

You the unintended victim

Unable to express my your anger and frustration

Vernacular still under construction

Things turned upside-down

Your heart is pulled in so many new directions

Don't know where to turn

Every day new challenge you should have never known

Broken yet whole

Shattered yet able to hold

Things that can not be changed

I will try to fill the holes

I will try to repair the breaks

I will try to mend your wounds

I will try to cover your scars

I want my boy broken no more
