Notes About The Poem

https://amzn.to/3Or0f6q

Fragile

I am fragile
falling
and breaking
over and over
I reach out to
lovers 
who have left
for another.
I feel
I'm drowning
emerged in 
lost hopes
confused and
reciting old
and forgotten
tropes.
My trauma
is real
fostering
multiple
heartbreaks
often I feel
there's
not much more
I can take.
Inside I feel
pushed and pulled
she left me 
in the night
once again a fool.
I wonder
if I'll ever
be what
someone needs
their true love
the only one
they want to please.
