To Love Again

Phases hurting, memories not forgetting
Stuck in the mind with torns and pricking
Pluck of the heart that worns and piercing
Tokens shattering, to be free but not letting.

Very interesting enclosed rhyme, Clifford. I like the third line particularly... is the heart worn out? Is it sending a warning out to avoid being worn out further? Both are apropos, and no matter the selection, one would think of the other in this context. And your last line is great - walking away is easiest, but a lonely path, and that's not what we're here for. Enjoyed!
