My Broken Heart
My heart is full of love,
Healthy and pumping
Joy around my veins,
Except for one shattered corner.
The piece you broke
When you distanced yourself,
When you spoke to me unkindly,
When you treated me unfairly,
When you made me feel worthless.
I keep the hurt well hidden,
Under the shadow of pain
Paralysed by the suffering you caused.
Occasionally the frost melts slightly
But then the tears fall,
A plethora of emotions,
Love, regret, pity, truth.
Who are you?
How did you become this person?
Where is my lovely son?
I pray to God for you
And I live in hope
That one day you will repair
My broken heart.
