blue hearts

Love can hurt

My friend was talking about her broken heart and it made me think of a time my heart was broken. Maybe this poem will be cathartic, but the hurt never goes away completely, does it?

OUCH

Life is like a collage

Full of torn and tattered bits

The piece of my heart that you stole from me

Your rages and your fits

.

I wasn't the only one you hurt you know

There was that four letter word you call ‘wife'

I guess you weren't planning to tell me about her

Your secret other life

.

Oh and what about your daughter

She's only four or five

She won't know why mommy is crying

While you go out for a drive

.

Well now I'm glad you dumped me

Biggest favor you could have done

But did you think I wouldn't know

That now you and my best friend are having fun?

.

Oh I told her you were married

This best friend of mine

She said I was a liar

And her and you were doing fine

The tangles of love! How many heartbreaks must there be before love is really free!

Sighhhhhhh And yes! You have captured a phenomena that is rampant! So sad! So unfair!
