Broken ToysA Poem by V M SmithIn this electronic world, how does one even seek print publishing? Is print publishing still alive for poetry? Curious. My stuff is likely too often too dark and to raw to put in print anyway.
I'm down, I'm broken
I'm here, I'm your token Of a love once lost And a man mistaken For good, for real Instead of drugs or steel He's gone, I'm here It's him, you fear But I'm the token Of a relationship broken One more time Just yell, I'm here Give me hell because my eyes fell My face was solemn, my jaw locked Now red marks on me So many bruises they don't see I'll cry no more, your problem I'm not sore, you're broken You're here, but I'm leaving Your fear will fester You'll get no better Little boy He's coming with me You won't ruin him too Sand and sorry you Will have no toys to break You'll have more than one hated date You'll have only one promise left to make Just one left to break One life to take © 2013 V M SmithAuthor's Note
