My Embrace

Sitting here in solitude, my own hearts lonliness sets in. Somehow I've lost, what I thought were my friends. Each and every day I hope it will get better. But, it is so hard, when you've been stripped, of all that mattered. I handed you my heart, for just a moment. Longing for you to embrace it. As i struggle to hold back the tears that soon followed. How can you just leave my heart on the floor? I felt so foolish and so hurt. Why did I open myself up to you? I guess somewhere in my mind, I convinced myself that, I could be the one embracing you. Sadly I was wrong. I should not have spoken. It would have saved our friendship and my broken................heart.
