Heartburn

How it feels when love took a wrong turn Like spice was turned up high and burned Like you were promised a piece of pie But instead got a plate full of worms Feelings that fill your head with heartburn Worse than what happens eating the wrong food Knowing it taste so good but is bad for you Same thing applies to a toxic lover who Shattered heart you are apart but still feel connected to Heart farts that try to save face Despite being full of black tears Holding on to memories of good days Despite the dingy dungeon bad years Forgiving loving love despite not receiving Losing yourself in someone else Especially one so cunning and deceiving Finding one single sunny spot in it all Knowing now not to look down For life is forward thinking stand tall Knowing that this may have went bad But to love someone is always good You are one person closer to happiness that Will be warm and charmed as blessings should

I agree...to love someone is always good. I've never heard of the expression 'heart farts.' good one :-)
