Too Broken

Tonya Richardson 1968 (Mississippi)

Rhymed
It’s been too long and I’m in too deep, the road is so long and the hills are so steep.
I feel like there’s no where left to go, I’m just stuck here on this plateau.  
My mind keeps these old wounds open, I feel so lost and fear I am just too broken.
