What Finally Broke Me

Why is hope so against me?

He dances with her,

Talks to her,

Sticks to her,

He can’t stay away from her,

While I stand there holding her things,

My fractured heart,

And his eyes.

I still had hope then.

But now that he comments on her Facebook picture,

It shatters all the sweet butterflies.

It squashes all hope.

Just one little action put onto

A bunch of bigger points,

Finally managed to penetrate me.

Was I wrong to love him?

He had held my hand when I was wounded,

But now he looks at her and leaves me with the chilly wind.

He had wiped my eyes while they bled tears,

But now he is her servant.

He had held my glass heart with gentle fingers,

But now he’s let it drop all for her

And hasn’t even realized what he broke.
