Would you unbreak me?

Would you unbreak me?

Would you unbreak me? 

I tried it myself.

Yoga, meditation, and self-care all failed. 

I know it’s not your job. It must sound ridiculous.

Wanting someone who didn’t break it to fix it.

 

But if only you knew the torture inside. 

The storm that’s been brewing.

The strength of the tide. 

 

If you only knew the weight of my tears.

The pain in my spirit.

The extent of my fears.

 

If you could only see the rips on my soul.

The lumps in my belly.

Anxiety’s toll.

 

You would understand the beg in my voice.

The despair I feel.

The absence of choice.

 

Could you unbreak me? 

Most men say, “No.” 

They won’t attempt what another man won’t.

 

Do you have the patience?

I’m a thousand-piece puzzle. 

I dance in the rain but fall into puddles. 

 

Since a young girl, There has been a series of struggles. 

Sex with strangers, in and out of trouble. 

 

I’ve been beaten. I have been raped.

I am torn, and I am ashamed.

 

I don’t know why you’re here!

I’ll wipe my own tears!

 

Just an example of how I'll lash out. 

The tantrum I will throw before moving out.

 

Will you heal me? 

Stand by my side.

 

I’ll slay my demons.

I’ll fight my own fight. 

 

Stand right there.

Where can I see you?

 

Until I can trust you.

I’m going to need you.
