to the broken heart..

"Love is hard to find, hard to keep, and hard to forget." - Alysha Speer



To the broken heart; pieces lay in the wake of the aftermath, a fight, painful words, thrown glass, and a broken soul. They have undoubtedly taken it's toll on your already weakened body. The boiling pain that has built up around unsaid things, undone comfort, cheating spouses, a broken home.

You can only concern yourself with negative thoughts, your sadness has turned to anger, your anger to hate, your hate delving into depression. A broken heart; like a glass ball chipped away little by little each and every time it is dropped, the caretaker you had given it to is continuously clumsy, they don't bother to concern themselves with repairs, they care not about what consequences come, or the outcome this may bring, love is what created you, selfishness is what broke you.

Crying yourself to sleep, helps ease the pain. Drinking to keep beautiful memories at bay which only remind us of what once was and what is now. Your scars are fresh but dry. Lost is what things have come to.

To the broken heart; the pieces will return to you, your true caretaker never abandoned you, he or she lay waiting silently, peaceful as a summer night, with glue in hand like a child at play. Your strength will return, you body will regain. You will ignore what could have been, what you exclaim should have been, because you will understand what had to have been.

Positive thoughts will wrap you as your depression subsides. Hate lingers and anger will toy with you, though eventually you will learn that in time, you will care less about things that seemed to matter so greatly but worth so little. The more you smile you attract the warmth of company, the warmth that dries the wet adhesive as it does its work to connect and bringing back sanity, bringing back a repaired heart, a whole heart, which you own and shall keep safe once again.

To the whole heart; be wary upon who may hold you. Understand and know that taking care of yourself is the key to finding someone who will do the same for you. Don't rush into the heat of battle but calmly and diligently move through to success. Smile confidence when you see your scars, allow them to remind you the worst you've been through and that you would do it all over again knowing it would land you to be who you are.. A better person.
