Alexis Y. Poet Triolet

Love Broke Through Hurts Shell

I was left wounded and broken to the core,
Love was a myth; I felt unlovable as well.
I didn’t think I was worthy of anything more,
I was left wounded and broken to the core.
You showed up out of nowhere, I opened the door.
Your love for me broke me out of hurt’s shell.
I was left wounded and broken to the core,
Love was a myth; I felt unlovable as well.

Michelle Faulkner May 28, 2021 at 12:03 PM A very moving triolet, Alexis, I understand what you meant about how love can be restorative, I myself have had struggles with feeling unloved too so I can relate to this~

Alexis Y. May 28, 2021 at 12:01 PM Hi everyone, I went back and changed the title and edited a line because I did not intend for the poem to be just about someone wounded and broken. I wanted to show the healing power of love. I appreciate everyone that read and commented. Have a great day and weekend:-) Alexis

Hugs, Jennifer. Alexis Y. May 28, 2021 at 12:04 PM Hi Jennifer, You are correct; that is why I went back edited the poem so it could show the healing power of love. Have a great day and weekend:-)Alexis
