Crippled Heart

Kind of a poem version of my story "I can't believe you"

Please No CSS

Crowds of people quickly pass,

Avoiding me like broken glass,

They advance in life with such success,

And leave me here an utter mess,

 

I plead to them with melting eyes,

To not ignore my silent cries,

But it makes no difference what I say,

I watch them leave me, day after day,

 

I lost all hope in life and death,

And was ready to take my final breath,

When you stopped and stared at me,

Then took my hand and set me free,

 

I now advance as others do,

Because I stood and walked with you,

Hand in hand we pass them all,

And together we will never fall.

Oh, I really loved this. It's true for you and true for me, though I'm still in the second stanza, just waiting alone. Please keep writing. You have such a clean, real, wonderful voice. Flora.
