Broken Heart
Broken Heart
I was standing right there in your corner
With you
With all the creepy cobwebs dangling and
The scary spiders lurking overhead.
I rubbed your back when you were
Feeling blue
And I stayed true.
It was my tears that fell to ease
Your pain
It was I who got soaked when you
Were caught out in
The rain
Time and again.
Now here I am standing in my corner
All alone
The tables have turned, my heart is sore
But I am facing the creepy spiders
On my own
And you are gone.
So many questions to ask you
Like why?
Where did you go, how could you leave me at this time
With no goodbye
Or even an ill-bred lie?
I know somewhere in this a valuable lesson
Is being taught
I know someday I'll learn it and accept that
We're apart
I know Time's practised hands will one day mend
My broken heart
And I'll make a fresh start.
Marj Bless
