WHAT BROKE YOU?

Was it the love taken and not given
The kindness sent that never returned
Tell me if it were the sweetness of the many laughter and sunshine he radiates around
Making luminous the simple 
Sparkling the bland and warming the glaciers of your heart


What broke you my darling? Tell me.
Was it the waiting for him to sort his feelings?
The confusion from uncertain vibe of what if, when if and how if?
Is it the unspoken truce between your hearts, knowing it will never be?
Certain that the wait will fade, surety that time won't tell.
Was it the icy silence, cold shoulder, gentle message from his reversed feelings that left you lonely and lost in the wait only you fear?


Sure it wasn't that he voiced it? Say it or gave it a word.
Maybe, it was in his not admitting it, not sounding it and never letting you understand, yet meaning it.


What broke you little cherub?
Was it the last act, showing you that love wasn't enough, passion weren't worth it, and trying for days to please him wouldn't change a thing?
Tell me, the gentle hands couldn't calm your nerves, soothe your frayed muscle and help quiet the raging noise in your head.


What broke you my heart?
I hear you reply, it's the pieces that walked away when I finally accepted I'm broken.
