Heartbreak

Heartbreak
is the familiar empty spot in my bed.
walks so confidently, disguised as a man.
weighs down my eager-to-love heart.
shows me that love costs a price. 
feels like a drill to the chest.
has tried to make me give up.
cannot convince me love is not real.
is the first step in healing.
has made me stronger.
is inevitable.
