Broken and shattered
pieces on the floor
my poor heart
cannot take any more
Another kick in the teeth
headed my way
my wounded heart
cannot get away
dealing and coping
for what its worth
is it so wrong to wish
to undo my birth?
Make it all go away
and cease to exist
remove me from here
an unwanted cyst.

Wow! What a great short powerful piece you have here. I really like the whole thing start to finish. Your closing lines really wrap up the whole feeling of the piece. I usually try to find something to help add more to the work but I can't do it for this one. Nice work Tim.
