Broken pieces

Author: Abby1963

Long ago
I Fell In love with you
Never did I think
You would leave me
My heart is bruised and broken
Everyone says get over you
And Move on
I've tried
these tired feet don't want to walk the street
My hands hurt from praying
My hearts broken
My mind has never been the same
I've tried to recreate our love
It will never be
You're gone forever
God please help me
pick up these broken pieces
And Put my life back together

Laura dear there is no limited time on grieving a loss. People who have never lost the most important person in their life are able to understand this. Once it happens to them (unfortunately) - only then do they realize and understand. Please know that every time you post a post of loss, I feel your pain as I too have lost the most important person in my life 7 years ago - my Mom. As I never married, I do not know what it is like to lose a spouse, but the pain is basically the same. Take care friend.

It took me thirty years to "recover" from my first love Laura.
My heart was so hurt, I had a pain in my chest that lasted three days. I decided to build a wall around it. I was only eighteen.
It has coloured my view ever since, of forming deep meaningful relationships, and held me back from so much potential love.
Please try to let go.

Too often we grieve for what could of been, and sadly we miss out on what could be.
A touching write.
Take care.

Dearest Kathy thank you for the lovely comment . I thought the pain of loosing my mother was bad. I can't compare this kind of pain I feel for Tom to my mother . Tom was my Rock ,my best friend ,my first love . I want to move on I just keep hitting this brick wall :-(

Ah Abby your heart is in this poem

imagine the broken pieces as a jigsaw and slowly do the picture of what you want from your life.

Laura, my loyal friend.
Stands in my corner
until the end.
Claws out, teeth bared.
Its' OK, let her be.
She only shamed herself
you see....

Some people mouth the words
but feel no pain

You expressed the pain with
beautiful heartfelt words of the poet

I join the people that care for you
It's a bumpy road but move on with
your head held high as your Connecting
Singles friends have encouraged you to do!

Heartfelt poetry ~ very good!
