Poem – My Forest is Dark

Today my forest is dark
The trees are sad and
All the butterflies have
Broken wings
And there I sit
In the middle of it all
Completely empty
Trying to grasp onto
Something
Anything
But I always slip
And fall back
Down
Down to the ground
I think I’ll just
Give up now
And sit here
In the middle of my forest
Full of
Broken dreams
And memories
I’ll stay here
Surrounded by
The shadows
Of the people
Who broke me
