Broken Toys

This poem is for all those who feel like broken toys

Broken Toys


You and I are one, as a broken toy
Broken girl, broken boy
God must have thrown us together
Disenchanted souls, bound by pain forever

The need that binds our heart
Is also the need that can tear us apart
Undeserving of love, deep inside always believing
Innocence lost as children
For that loss we are forever grieving

The touch of belonging to ease our mind
A longing for acceptance among mankind
A breath of love upon our cheek
An arm to hold us when we are weak

Someone to tell us it's okay
A faint smile or grin shown our way
The search for why and never finding
Fear and happiness always intertwining
We are kindred spirits, you and I
For we are the broken toys no one else wants to buy
