Break Me

A poem I wrote after I got out of an abusive relationship. I simply wanted freedom, I have that now!

Break Me

Take me down; off the shelf
Let me go to be myself.
I am not a porcelain doll; so
Don’t be afraid to let me fall.

Pick me up, throw me down
Let my shell shatter, on the ground
Let me cast away my expectation
Let me go, be free to run

Allow the wind in my hair
To run and play without a care
Don’t hold me back, don’t keep me here
A cage and bars, that’s what I fear.

I am not a porcelain doll
Don’t’ be afraid to let me fall.
Pick me and throw me down
Let me shatter to the ground,
Break Me!

love the first stanza
shows how strong you became
and teh faith you have in yourself

and the freedom desperatly needed
will do anything to get it
through the pain and misuse
we keep our eyes set on the truth

i love the feeling of wind in hair
makes you feel cleansed
free
"Don�t hold me back, don�t keep me here
A cage and bars, that�s what I fear." ditto that

wonderful piece!
