My name is...
A shot to the heart.
Broken inside,
Never will I return
Rather, I'd die.
To stand up myself,
To fend for life,
Never could I do
Trouble filled is strife.
Why even try!
Can't I cry!
Could there even be compromise?
Cowering in fear
Let me shed these tears.
Forever broke.
In strength,
heart,
and mind,
A joke.
