When lessons are learned

When lessons are learned

A Poem by Shannon

When a heart is torn into two

Left bleeding on the ground not knowing what to do

When the blood spills out and the rage flies in

When you learn your hero’s not coming home again

When that haunting melody seeps into your soul

When you feel as if you’re your essence is no longer whole

When your body no longer wants to go on

When the nights seem far to dark and far to long

When reminiscent memories haunt your deepest thought

When your hope has gone and your emotions rot

When you learn that love was not returned

When you find your lesson learned…
