Broken Hearts, Broken Minds

I look out to the darkened streets
Memories of dreams long passed away
Knowing what he’s done to me
(Never forgive, Never forget)

I left the real world long ago
Living in twisted, haunted lies
Watching escape run through my fingers
(Always hoping, Always here)

Take my hand, I reach to you
See me out of this living hell
I can only hope to make a whisper
(Keep on trying, Keep on fighting)

Hold me tightly as I sleep
Escaping to my only refuge
The bittersweet silence of children’s dreams
(Broken Hearts, Broken Minds)

    I really like this poem. It has a sense of innocence to it but also a sense of great pain.

    My favorite lines are:

    "Hold me tightly as I sleep
    Escaping to my only refuge"

    Sometimes sleeping is our only escape!
