Gedicht der Woche [KW 37]:

Heartbreak

Don’t remember this state: unbroken.

The scars are mended - a makeshift repair.

It’s been stumped on and shattered to pieces -

My poor heart: I should take more care…

And the love always lasting the longest

Is the one that’s no longer returned.

Henceforth it remains unrequited

And that’s a state that needs to be learned.

Cos my memory still loves you dear…

You killed me, but I’m breathing.

I’m a living delusion far from truth

With a heart that’s barely beating.
