When A Heart Is Broken
When A Heart Is Broken
by Fred M. Lassonde
For days and nights now I have wept
Sunshine or shadow does not matter
I gave my heart but it was not kept
Instead, like my mind, It was glass to shatter
Now as I sit here hurt and feeling blue
Even though I try I cannot forget you
Sure by now I am not even a memory
Yet, with a broken heart, I live this story
Nothing now will make the pain go away
I continue to exist broken day after day
With a heart, mind and soul that loves you
I go on knowing you will just do as you do
They say pride comes before a fall
Yet I wish you no hurt, no harm at all
Pray for you each and every day
For your well being, blessings in every way
Will end this now as my heart hurts so
My fingers move along these keys they do
typing this poem with hope you will know
No matter what I will always Love you!
