A Heart Made of Stone Can Never Break

By Maureen

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Not taking any chances With this fragile heart today, I still feel the pain Of what happened yesterday. He said, "You know I love you, But I have to go away. I need to spend some time alone, Please don't ask me to stay." I knew this day was coming, I could tell he didn't care, He wasn't listening to a word I said, It was as if I wasn't there. I tried to be the person That he wanted me to be, But it really was impossible To be anyone but me. (Every day we make a choice... Should we stay or should we go? Some days we feel we have to leave If we intend to grow.) (Time heals all wounds, they say. "Please, time, heal mine", I prayed.) Yesterday he made his choice, Today I am alone. I should be feeling....something?? NO!...My heart has turned to stone. Written September 5th, 2001 © on Sep 05 2001 02:21 PM PST, Maureen Halasovski    0 • 1
