Fragile Love and Cheating Hearts

Fragile things fall easily
No one takes the time to see
Care and love need to be taken
Or there will be lots of breaking
When you think it doesn't matter
You made my heart crash and shatter
Into pieces small and slivered
Pain sinks in and I shivered
From the coldness that occurred
As you said those dreadful words
With hateful eyes that pierced into
My soul that you turned black and blue
You took for granted from the start
The love that was inside my heart
Cheating and running around
I broke down the day I found
A new flame inside our bed
Visions filling up my head
Of her wrapped around you tight
Passions starting to ignite
With a love that was not me
Erasing all the history
And a past I thought was real
Now I see somebody steal
All my dreams of a great life
With me as your loving wife

Very heartbreaking and deeply emotional. Sadly, I think we have all been there before. It is a shame that couples don't seem to stay together anymore. A very well written poem, Robin, very nicely done...You might like my poem, "Scarred Heart"...Thank you very much for the kind comments, once again!
