~Can I Ask You This...~

Did you mean to break me
when my body was frail and wilting?
falling heart and heavy eyes
smiles far behind
lack of desire
to be pretty
for you
for me
for the world
so unkind
so unknown
did you mean to break me,
to run my tear ducts dry?
to leave your evil signature
across my face
my heart
I was fragile and you knew it
I was scared and you thrived
I was broken by the devil
on a night when the moon never showed up........    never wanted to.

This is amazingly beautiful.  My favorite was 'to leave your evil signature across my face; my heart'  Very well depicted!

The way to gain is to lose,
The way to your hearts content
is to be sad.

Yes something prrrretty,
Like a whispering smile that spreads out from us all to your heart.
You can feel it can't you.
You have a way of expressing your emotions to us, with small girls meekness that makes every man here want to hold you, but then the underlying strength of a tiger with powerful strokes of your pen, to trounce any foe, excellent writing my friend.
Joel.

 I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

I enjoyed reading this...I've found that many times when someone's heart is broken by another the other one is so busy trying to get out of the relationship that they won't answer our heartfelt questions.  They are selfish and thinking only of themselves. Their answer to every questions is goodbye.  Take care of yourself.  James
