Broken – October 21, 2019

Grief, life, love, poetry 1 Minute

You knew I was broken,

But you did it anyway.

~~~

Your boyish charm

Mistaken for grown up ideas.

The blanket you spread,

A moments reach from being saved

From

You,

But we were left alone

To our own childhood

misfortunes.

Took what you wanted,

What I was willing to give.

To be seen or heard

To feel close to something

Searching for a love

That left me before.

Not to be found

On the concrete floor,

Or in your arms.

As I lay you to rest

In my memories

Alongside

Things I will never forget…

~~~

You knew I was broken,

But you did it anyway.
