A Broken City Poem by matthew benjamin

A Broken City



A broken city Is where the broken live.
With broken windows and broken men.
The black nights and the darkened days,
Do all they can to cover his ways.
There's memories lost and acts hidden.
Returning home is he forbidden?

There was one he loved in all his ways.
He's climb the tallest tower on the darkest of days.

This girl made him whole
She gave him light.
After all she was his reason to fight.
He didn't worry, he never swayed.
She was there to brighten his days.

But then the man came and he saw her less.
He made her smile, he complimented her dress.
After it all he became her best.

Now he is broken, a broken man.
He walks to the city where the broken live.

For it hides his acts it hides his ways.
His memories are lost, hidden like his ways..
