Broken Hearts

Love deceives
when it comes to family
It falters
just as Autumn wind hits trees

Leaves fall
just as tears begin to roll
down cheeks
Barriers appear we meet a wall

Words played
battle as we disagreed
Unfaultering
both stood firm decisions made

Battle grounds
Left, dark, dank, pools we cried
Half dead
we split. No longer passion found.

So sad to lose passion betweem ones we love but dont be full of pride sometimes we have to let go and mend broken bridges before they get worse and are beyond repair.
