love Love

A Poem by Maggie Reese
"

heartbreak - a feeling too many of us know all too well

"
You kept me safe until you didn’t

You got scared and left just distance

I continued to love and love and Love

For you to betray my trust and never listen

I fell intensely and hard and fast

You made it easy; I was crystal clear glass

You saw right through me and still -

You dropped me,

I fell,

I shattered at impact

You were scared of my fragility like it was contagious

Couldn’t look at my broken pieces; so courageous

I craved to be safe with you;

to be loved and that to simply be true

when lose the ability to trust and get so fragile...then find someone who feels safe, it is doubly devastating to get hurt by that person...
broken pieces...sometimes make the other person run first...
needless to say....a very sad situation occurs here.

Emptiness flows from your pen. Sadly many have experienced this same situation and though I know that doesn't make it any easier, not many have the ability to express this sadness as well and emotionally as you have.
