still
she’s got a broken heart
wearing the fake smile
so well to fool the world
and pretending everything’s fine
empty bottles and old chip bags
surround her on the floor
mixed with DVDs and CDs
damn my empathic gift
i swear its a curse
i remember what it felt like
the last call, the last tears
crying hysterically in my car
sitting on the side of the street
you’ll never leave me alone
i’ve come to accept this
but it still hurts
and my breath still turns cold
and my heart still stops
it will always hurt
I can be strong in the moment
i’ll stand firm, the soft shoulder
while she gets all the anger out
all of her tears staining my shirt
and her pain masked in hatred
drips down my arm to the floor
my heart breaks for her
and then my heart breaks again for you
cause it still hurts
and my breath still turns cold
and my heart still stops
it will always hurt

A poem which you were able to appreciate as an artistic effort. Something that moved you or stirred emotions within you. Good use of imagery, very understandable, very well written. A poem with that something extra. Reviewed by brentdoyle
