Broken

Broke down,
He runs,
He is broken today,
Virtue has caught up to him,
Done the worst,
His soul weeps,
He caused such hurt,
Life has no purpose,
Can’t live for God

Too much substance,
Too much taker,
Too much guilt,
Can’t stop crying,
Can’t live like this,
Can’t kill himself,
He is not allowed.

Had to call the preacher,
He answered the door,
His face fell seeing the drawn man,
No hope, running from God,
He tells him words he won’t forget,
“If you are broken,
If you know it’s wrong and
You are convicted, the Spirit is in you”.

Too much substance,
Too much taker,
Too much guilt,
Can’t stop crying,
Can’t live like this,
Can’t kill himself,
He is not allowed.

This is his pain,
Running from God,
He chases him,
He won’t let him go.
The preacher left,
He still runs,
Many more years
Still broken

Too much substance,
Too much taker,
Too much guilt,
Can’t stop crying,
Can’t live like this,
Can’t kill himself,
He is not allowed.
