Angel E. Broberg Poems

Alone I can't mend my broken heart
Without hope, how can I even start?
When all I have is this dark and gray
A lingering shadow in my way
...

Here I sit in darkness both day and night
Trapped by the sharpness of throat to knife
Though I move freely inside my cage,
I can’t get out – towards my escape
...

I've suffered injustice
Treated with mistrust
Can't afford to believe
‘cause of what they think of us
...

The sweet sadness bears her sorrow deep down,
steep it leans towards the abyss.
Loveless and heartless; she fears she cannot feel.
Her love and her hate; all the same has turned to steel.
...

Petals soft, fragrance sweet
unspoiled nature even in heat
even in snow, storms and rain
it stands, enduring all the pain
...

I dream of you my little one
my sweet and round moon
your pale light, your lovely song
the perfection that is you
...

I am a shell of my former self
A faint shadow of someone else
‘cuz all the awesomeness I used to be
disappeared into somewhere I can’t see
...

Soft caresses on my forearm
bring me to my knees
Soft purrs, gentle whispers
My heart beats loud but steady
...
