Poem Title:
Poem
Yes, he broke my heart, but not the usual way With tender words, he made my poor heart sway Each chamber beamed with his adoring smile That chased the demons, made my life worth while He broke my heart…. My heart was callous, filled with dirt and grime Its walls all hardened by betrayal’s crime And there he was a blazing ray of light That came into my heart and made things right He broke my heart… He bathed each wall with sympathizing tears And made me feel the joy of youthful years He made of me of a woman, blooming fair Oh how he glorified my raven hair He broke my heart…. He broke down each defense that I set up And gave parched lips a drink from lover’s cup He loved my body, and adored my mind And vowed my beauty was the rarest kind He broke my heart…. He broke my heart, he broke my every care He broke the chains that had me in despair He broke my silence, and he made me sing He broke my crutch and gave me angel wing He broke my heart… And in the breaking, love gushed out from me In deluge of romance and constancy Renewed, refreshed, revived from broken dreams He broke my heart and bathed it in his streams He broke my heart…. Eileen Manassian
