Break My Heart Softly ~*Marge Tindal*~ Darling, tell me, is it true, that you have found somebody new ? Someone to hold you in their arms and tell you of your many charms ? Is it really a possibility, that you no longer care for me ? Don't let me be the last to know. Break my heart softly as you go. Must I learn to love another ? Please do not linger if it's so. If I must lose your love this way, tell me now so I will know. Though it will never be the same, I won't forget the way you came into my life with your broken dreams, needing mending at the seams. Your broken heart now mended, you've surely left me blue. So much for this seamstress, I'm left with just the threads of you. So I will gather myself and find another heart to mend. But this time - this time I'm tying knots in the threads ! ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] [This message has been edited by Marge Tindal (edited 12-11-2000).] |

Marge~ You have a great talent my friend. The words for this one fail me right now . . . LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Marge - I didn't know hearts could be broken softly. Yours seems pretty strong though. I love the knots in the threads! Nice write, as always. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

marge, you wrote my life in this one. it seems that the hearts that give the most are the ones that end up alone. now, if i could only find the grace and strength that was so beautifully written here, well, perhaps it might not be so harsh. |

this was a very good read, Marge..loved the mataphors.. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Oh, Marge, I wish Your words could help someone very special to me, find a healing message in this poem. It helps to know there can be a "next time". I pray for knots! Love and hugs, ME |

You are one of the best poets, Marge, your words never fail.... "Always be a first rate version of your self instead of a second rate version of someone else." Marilyn Monroe |

There is always a next time. *Hugs* back to you. Kathleen~ What a nice thing for you to think. Thank you. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
