Loving a Broken Heart
Broken pieces
Of a heart
Refusing to become
Whole
Pieces drifting in spaces
between ex-lovers
who each carry them
as memories
Trying to make
Their own hearts whole
Collecting pieces
From beings
Which promised
Serenity
And security for
Their aching hearts
Have you ever tried loving
A broken heart
Tried fighting nightmares
Of broken promises
Rising towards the surface
Leaving their burial grounds
And poisoning all hope
Of truth being spoken
By beings in search
Of broken hearts
Trying to make them whole
Have you ever tried battling
The insecurities
Waged war against issues
Entrenched by beings
Too cowardly to see the pain
They inflict
Even after they've become
Distant memories
Lost in the moving wind
