Never to broken again.

The heart is a funny thing. Loved or broken, it rules all the same

Torn

Shredded

You left it in ruins

Was it conquest you craved?

Laughter you sought?

Moments of grandeur

For that's all you bought.

 

Take away all your pain

Take the moments of trust

Far away I so wish you

Go away if you must.

 

The heart is a gift

Treasured and kept

Not a token to toss

Not a thing to soon regret.

 

So goodbye my lover

So long my friend

Take care my sweet thing

Fly away to your den.

 

Of lies and deceit

Of things you alone kept

Of your heart so cold

That I alone wept.

 

Fear not, I shall do well

Rest easy, I shall find my way

For the sun shall come up

Once again a new day.

 

So goodbye my lover

So long my friend

Take care my sweet thing

Fly away to your den.

 

For the heart is a rare thing

Never to broken again.

[Coyote Poetry]

The poem told a story of sadness and disappointment. I like the ending. Accepting a goodbye and trying to find some sort of peace allow the heart to heal. A sad ending. When the heart fade away to nothing. Ain't much is left over. A excellent poem.

A heart-felt poem, very sad and tragic... yet realistic I personally remember feeling like this, you captured the feelings neatly, great job.

[Tina Kline]

A broken heart is one of the worst pains and being in love one of the best things to feel. Perhaps that's why we risk the pain of heartache and love. This is a very sad tale for sure.

You have,as usual made your thoughts crystal clear none can doubt your intent in this write you are as I repeatedly state the best living poet I have had the privledge to read.

Yet it happens again and again, esp when we think we are beyond it often. But this is how we are. Some can't love and it never happens to them. But others can't help but love and get love clawed again and again ... but they love it because they are the more alive when in lovepain.

A sad but heartfelt write knowing you as I do..sad part is...the heart will open up to be broken over and over again..like it has no control over who it falls in love with..Sad but true..love and God bless..Kathie

You really pulled the sadness out of the depths of your soul.
There must have been an overwhelming sense of relief as you
penned the final words. Special work here...Bravo.
