Letter to a broken heart

I tried to warn you
It was far too simple
He was just too perfect
I showed you that early on
And now all I can do is watch you weep.
I presented every sign
Pointed out all my fears
Nagging doubts
with jagged edges;
You refused to believe.
I hate to say it now-- I told you so.

And a broken heart's reply

He may have hurt me
Taken all I had and
charred it;
Smashed my soul
Stripped me bare
But I cannot say
That I was wrong
'Cause I gave my all
And to feel for him
As I have for no other
I could never regret
And it was worth it

Jenn, I'm still in the dark here
I'm just making guesses on what's going on
Well, I really don't have to know
Your poems just concern me though
Hope things do get better
Thanks for sharing

It's always worth it Jen. It doesn't matter if it's only for a few days or for a lifetime. Take the chance, and never listen to those who doubt it. They don't know what they are missing.

Best wishes,

Jenndalene, you already know how much I love it and I think that you've done a really good job with this. The pain won't last forever so try to smile because you have a nice smile and remain positive no matter how crappy the outcome looks. You've always got me to talk to.

Take care of yourself and thanks for sharing.

A two sided viewpoint. Very unusual, but I like it!

ANYWAY
*CHEERS*
I'm so glad I started catching up...WOW! Jenn, I LOVED this...Most def. One of my fav pieces from you....I liked the whole 2 parts to the poem etc...Loved the whole Idea behind it... And the last lines "And it was worth it " HUGE effect on me. The whole poem actually was on I could REALLY relate to...The whole time my eyes were watering...*Sigh* What an awful situation....Hope all gets better, though I'm sure it won't...*Hugs* Thanks for the read though, deary....LOVED it. Take care!

Thanks Jesa! Wow, it's always cool to have the old stuff brought up from the bottom. I'm so glad you liked this, but I'm so sorry you relate to it... it's kind of a bummer.

You're mistaken about one thing tho, even tho it never completely fades, it DOES get better.

Thanks for the comments.

In the end, it's *always* worth it. Because no matter how strong the pain is in the end, it can *never* wash away the love, or the memories that you shared.

I'm going to repeat that it was really cool that you broke this in two parts

I thought this was a well thought-through poem and it's different from what you usually do because the form is given more attention.
But you did an awesome job and I love it! It's my favourite poem by you
