I wear my heart
Heart on my sleeve
Sleeve: means out open
Open to new beginnings
Beginnings; where the past ends
Ends the rejection felt
Felt when he chose someone else

The wonders of pain that hit the human heart over a lifetime of love, I think will always bring some sadness…but just think of the incredible feelings you felt when it was there in full force. I think this is why I love sad song, poems and stories ~ it is a sign of truly living 🙂

I believe allowing that sadness in, is half the battle. To succumb to the journey of healing for own own good is an incredible feeling. Wonderful to see you, Randall. As you know, I love a sad song, as well. Hugs ♡

Ooh, chain verse — I love it, Audrey! And so well done, too. I think the reason this kind of hurt is so painful is that we feel exposed. We’ve given our heart to one who basically stomped on it, challenging us to pick up the pieces, put them back together, and move forward. NOT an easy thing to do, but so very worthwhile. Hugs!!

Those times are so difficult to get through. In fact, all difficult times of all sorts are so harsh that we can’t breath sometimes. But the ripping away from someone who has been intimate with another person is, in my opinion, the most painful. Love to you.

I agree, Susan. The effort used to try and fix what is broken after a moment like that can be a lonely road. Thank you for being here. Love to you, as well.

Enjoyed the round robin strategy for building this poem – clever – still, a sad ending

There’s a name for this form, a Poet named Benjamin taught it to me. For the life of me I cannot remember what it’s called. I need to research it. Thanks, Shari. Yeah, sorta sad, but sometimes sad poems are good.
