My Heart Gets Broken

My heart gets broken, I can't cry Feel the fall as words are spoken Harsh ideas, that you imply My heart gets broken Mind spirals, as old wounds reopen Entire self, on you I rely Eyes closed plain sailing, now woken My every fault you magnify Overshadowed, life does darken I took no time to fortify My heart gets broken

Thank you for the introduction to a roundel! I looked them up after reading yours - I like the form too and might try it again.

Deeply melancholic and pensive ! Tugs at my heartstrings. At times we feel life is very hard...! But it is just a passing phase.

Thank you Valsa, indeed it is and a lesson that I need to be master of my own emotional well-being if possible. I'm too easy to topple when petty things occur.
