Array ( [sid] => 125206 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Broken [time] => 2006-09-01 21:35:49 [hometext] => I have had a lot going on and this was the last poem I've written. I wil write more another day, but this one just speaks the moment. It's not the now, it was the then, still a pain in the rear. [bodytext] => Falling pieces on the ground
Life long dream
Done and gone
Nothing lost
Nothing found
All the same in the dawn

What is there then?
Shattered glass all around?
There is no glass to be found.
Heart of stone
Nothing more
That’s all that’s seen
No open door.

What once was hoped to swing in and out
Goes no way but pain and doubt
You and I do not exist
Because you only see the abyss

I hope that all is looking up for you.. at some point-
your work hardly equates to resiliency..
(though is as well written as I remember)

..and so, I hope and pray that you are well my friend-

God Bless-

As April Wine said :

"Broken hearts dont always mend
Left too unsure to try love again"

I say:

"Broken hearts mend, Bad realationships don't"
I hope you are okay and my best to you...

Nice flow and I feel your pain...

Thank You for sharing

I can feel the sadness in this piece, and regret. We find it hard sometimes to let go. Good write. Sue x
