A Poem---I Hope

-------------------------The Breaking-----------------------------

 

A heart, constant, steady, loving and true,

Stabbed with the dagger of mistrust, cleav'd in two.

Dark anger, brooding, and rage,

Have Love replaced.

 

It lays, blackened, bleeding, and lifeless...

Shattered, as a glass upon the floor.

Shall it stay as such forevermore?

 

The drama that is life is fraught with love and strife.

We see, and try to turn away,

But it draws us in, day after day.

 

Still, we struggle to carry on-

To continue is futile;

To give up is infantile.

 

Take the heart,

Shattered upon the floor...

Hold it, and look upon it,

But weep for it no more.
