Ashamed
sometimes i ashamed
it is not that i do not think –
i am or i can be a good person
just ashamed of how broken i can be
look at me at night,
because a night –
where nightmares do not happen
is a relief for me,
for me, just once, set my mind free
i scream inside for parents –
who could have just been parents
sometimes i feel ashamed
and i have to wonder,
what is the state of me lately
because every dream inside –
has the kind of rugged rocks –
and nightmares
where nothing seems to stay
and sometimes,
sometimes i am just ashamed
just ashamed of how broken i can be
