"mended Cracks"

The cracks in my heart

                       can barely be seen by eye

                                                  only felt with words

                       and a reflection of pain

that you have also been through...

A very moving tanka, Michael. Nearly everyone has experienced the pain of "cracks" in their hearts. Excellent! Love, Carolyn

It is very refreshing to read a poem which is about the sorrow both have shared. It is usually so one sided. Bravo!
