You Have Broken My Heart (Originally a Song)

You said you would forever love me
	And that it was always meant to be
	You said you would forever be here
	As the days fade you just disappear


	You have broken my heart
	You have torn me apart
	You have broken my heart
	And everyday I fall apart
	I fall to pieces
	I fall to pieces
	you have broken my heart


	You said to me you would never lie
	Now I can't help but wonder why
        You said to me you would never leave
        Now I can not even believe

        You have broken my heart
	You have torn me apart
	You have broken my heart
	And everyday I fall apart
	I fall to pieces
	I fall to pieces
	you have broken my heart

	You said you would never turn away
	And now I look back on that first day
	You said you would never let me down
	And now I lay crumpled on the ground

        You have broken my heart
	You have torn me apart
	You have broken my heart
	And everyday I fall apart
	I fall to pieces
	I fall to pieces
	you have broken my heart

Jamie, this poem I think is your best. It is exceptional, filled with emotion, beautifully written. Now, you asked me about the use of brackets in my writing, did you not hear the echo(the vibration)the shadow of a thought. This is a style used by the great poet E.E Cummings which I love. I use it often in my writing
