I Gather the Pieces

You gave me your heart and I gave you mine. Yours lies shattered split asunder by grief. And mine sustains me as I gather the pieces. (Verse) 6/16/2021 Bite Size Poem no7 Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Line Gauthier

A broken heart is one of nature's worst inventions. What was she thinking? Well penned my friend.

Thanks David, but I think you're misreading the meaning of this poem my friend, this poem is about death separating two souls and the survivor dealing with the grief, Emile
