You shattered all my defenses
I stood
Too shocked to speak
You pushed me to the sidewalk
Blood mingled with tears
“Come back! Come back!”
I screamed
But you drove away
And never heard
You took the roots of love
Out of my heart
And left it
A cold machine
“Pump. Pump,”
Hear its dull beats
This is not the same old story
Of broken hearts
With misery
With every part of me
I write a new chapter
Creepy picture. But awesome. Lovely text as well.
ReplyDeletenice. love how you used the sounds.
ReplyDeletehearts heal, over time, and with new chapters...
this was lovely.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully written, but you were painfully vulnerable and abandoned ... no way to treat you ... let him keep driving ... away from you. ♡
ReplyDeleteMaha thank you for the follow. I appreciate your presence.
ReplyDeleteYour images. Your words. Intricate. Full of life, edged with pain. Pulsating.
I will be back.
I love your poems, especially from one so young!
ReplyDeleteYou have some real talent here, keep up with the writing! It is beautiful and very moving too.

ReplyDeleteHey Ellie. Well, first thanks for visiting ;)
ReplyDeleteWhile writing this poem, I also pictured a city scene yet I chose this picture because I wanted something bleak.
