Another Broken Heart

Another Broken Heart

A Poem by Steven Pingel

The tears do smear across the page

Like the ink and lines, compassion fades.

Some attempts go unseen, untouched.

Friends absolved some leave, some stay.

The best kind of friend helps along the way.

If only one had seen I was trying too much.

 

What should one do, faced with certain pain?

What does one do when he can’t just abstain?

These things should be considered from the start.

When it’s certainly too late to pull yourself away

What can one do to keep lost love’s pain at bay?

The difficulties of avoiding another broken heart.

Just something I wrote after a particularly bad breakup. My typed words have always expressed the emotions that the spoken ones never can.
