AFTERMATH

Simple-Man87

You can never have my Heart

Because I don’t have one to give

It was savagely ripped apart

In the before time, which I lived.

 

I can almost pinpoint the day

She broke, exhausted from trying

The sky turned from blue to gray

As I sat and witnessed an Angel crying.

 

I couldn’t stop her tears from falling

Though I begged and pleaded, she thought it a lie

Fearing the Darkness was calling

It was time to say goodbye.

 

So to Love, I was forced to bid adieu

For the pain of hope was much too strong

Lacking forgiveness in this life anew

I try to move forward, but the guilt latched on.

 

Now with my happiness clutched tight in her grip

I struggle to muster the energy to pray

Reading my penance from Life’s Script

“You broke her Heart, so she took yours away.”

    S-M87,

    You’re still feeling sad and blaming yourself for it! You’re not being fair to yourself. Cut yourself some slack. Ease up on the negatives and concentrate upon the positives. This will open up your heart ( yes, you do have one) to someone new! You deserve happiness, too!
    Glad to read your writing! May your next one be less sad!

        Always remember to be good to yourself...you deserve that! Things happen...take a deep breath...reflect...and don’t forget it’s not all your fault whatever you feel guilty about!
