Broken ToysSome of us are broken toys that need a mend We grew up without much nurturing love and then... We wonder which way do we go from here We wander around in circles and wipe away our tear. We are so afraid of our own shadow and to make a mistake We live in engulfing fear and try to find our way out and to make Our life different than what we had But how do we do it? Gee this is sad ... We were born unloved unwanted children to this earth We only needed love and attention as a result of our birth We cry inside and wonder gee why me? Why can't my mom or dad reach out and help me to be free? I never wanted this life I had no choice to live I needed my parents to love me and just to give. Now I am an adult and still a broken toy But over my years little by little God replaced my tears for joy.
