Please leave alone my broken soul,

I’m tired of all the trauma I faced,

Now my heart is no longer whole.

I need to mend, I need to console,

What’s shattered cannot be replaced,

Please leave alone my broken soul.

Once bright with hope, now black as coal,

What’s undone is now misplaced,

Now my heart is no longer whole.

Don’t try to patch what time can’t toll,

My pieces are scattered, lost, and displaced,

Please leave alone my broken soul.

Though kindness comes, it takes a toll,

A touch too soft still feels disgraced,

Now my heart is no longer whole.

Let quiet winds be what patrol

This heart that breaks again and again,

Please leave alone my broken soul,

Now my heart is no longer whole.
