A poem I wrote about being broke.

I Am Broke, By Grandpatom

 

I am broke

I wish someone could fix me

It is not me that needs to be fixed however

It is my wallet

My wallet is empty

The Sides of my wallet are lonely

I wish there was a mechanic to fix me

I wish there was a way for my wallet to be full

Tired of being broke all the time

If someone would fix me

Then I could fix my car 

I really wish someone could fix me

And make me broke no more

    I am broke too and this is one of the reasons why I am trying my best to earn a little extra online:)

    I know the broke feeling. I too wish there was some way to \”fix\” that broke problem. Best of luck to you.

    Totally understand!

    I totally share the sentiment. I’ve been broke for years, only earning enough to get by – and sometimes not even that.
    It’s a feeling that sucks so much.

    I could totally relate to your sentiment. It really sucks when your wallet is nothing more than just an empty bag.
