Broken

Provocative and full of emotions I think we've all had at some point. Some more than others... to that extent of just willing the cracks to finally break open. Xo

Profound verse. When is it time to let the pieces fall? Some never do let them fall and shatter. Like always, amazing write.

Such pain in your write. I have been in a difficult place as of late myself and the words of your lovely poem touch me.

You are a woman of strength, my friend, and though the trials of life and love can sometimes be to much to cope with, you have shown resilience. ~ Belated congratulations on p.o.t.d. Warm regards // paul

FJ... what an emotive piece. It is so full of pain. You are a strong woman. You'll keep it all together. Sending hugs. I miss you

You words cut deep to the bone F, and your soul seems to weep from the battle cry of the lost and broken. Praying that God sends an angel to you, to anoint your broken bones and heal them, Love and always, friendship, take care, xo

I don’t know…let the tears fall…tired & weak - perhaps, but NEVER worthless, however we can feel that way. Hugs and Congrats on POTD on a heartbreaking write. So well expressed.

Quite an emotional write FJ, congratulations to you on the honour of POTD. Tom

Wonderful writing. Powerful. God bless you and congrats on POTD. Love, Gina

Congratulations on POTD. This is the first time I ever read a poem about a toxic relationship in such forceful, adamant words as you wrote in this poem. I like the direct simplicity that gets the point for the reader to digest.

Congrats on POTD. Dark deep poem.

Love has to be a place that YOU come from. We have to value yourself first and the other person second I have been down the same street. Do you have. I know that feeling of being worthless. You have to find the way for you to value who you are. I wish you the best …you can do it. I’ve done it.. it’s miraculous. Congratulations on being truthful that is great and poetry. you’re kind of poetry impresses me. I can relate to it so you see you’re already magical. *great honors on your POTD, Pangie

Pieces are cracked, but not broken. It takes a lot of strength to keep from falling apart. Although a heart is able to bear so much, no one can stay strong all the time. It's okay to shatter. When the time is right, the mending will begin. Congratulations Fj, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Beautiful verse my friend , congratulations on POTD.

It's nice to see you back, I remember you as a very generous poetess, gifting fellow poets with memberships. God bless. Congratulations on your POTD FJ Thomas! The time it seems has come, when it's time to let go, you'll know.

So nice to see you posting again my friend.. This one is deep and something many can relate to... Also congrats on POTD!

(overused word) Stunning! A thousand thumbs up!!!!

Congratulations on POTD!! A beautifully “broken” piece you have here. Great use of imagery and emotion. You bring life to the cracked and imperfect pieces we continually fix and reassemble along our journey. Well done.

congrats on POTD! beautiful, touching, and I hope it heals quick!

Sad, but beautiful poem, Dear Poet. In a few words, you have touched many hearts. I liked the optimism in this line "Amazing that, even though I cracked, I never broke". My favourite pieces are usually short, but carrying profound thoughts. Congratulations on your POTD. Warm wishes ~Mala

Trying to put the broken pieces together, and hoping they don't shatter, A heartfelt write, Good to see you Flo, Congrats on POTD

Excellent write, FJ. Congratulations on POTD. Sometimes it seems I've spent most of my life on the shelf of the "scratched and dented" aisle. Too damaged!
