 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Nothing left to feel


Righteous indignation is all that's left to feel
the broken home…the broken dreams
the truth so long concealed
thrown into life's quagmire, left to sink or swim
no prize of life… no thought of hope
no chance this life could win
then stripped of all God gave me
left naked, cold and scared
my body now broken, tears only laughed at
all that I was… stripped bare
now all I am is tainted from all that I have seen
the daily fights… the dark filled night
the loss of so many dreams
the mirror's only a reflection of everything that's real
now my tired eyes and tired heart
have nothing left to feel.
