Analysis of Broken inside

Kadot36 2001 (Nairobi)



*BROKEN INSIDE*
Fisting the walls in pain was lame
Ever since I got another break on my lane
All I had in mind was nothing much than pain
Had a heart full of burns cuts and bruises
Seeing my face turn from smiley to frown
Of a great loss collision impacting my soft fragile heart
Couldn't say a word but I wished I could

Felt a sting deep in my chest no known origin
My heart pumping faintly, soul tired of living
Didn't know what else to do other than persevere
Thought that actually I was on the last page of my book
Got hope for two weeks, then shattered
