Broken

Everyone loves.

When love ends, we’re heartbroken.

When we work up the courage to love again,

The same thing happens, heartbroken.

We give people our trust,

Just so we end up heartbroken.

But if we don’t trust, no one trusts back.

Meaning no one cares, leaving us heartbroken.

The scars always reminding you,

Of who left you heartbroken.

One day we will know what it’s like,

To be nevermore heartbroken.

An inevitable experience in life. You have written about it reasonably well.
