Broken Trust

[Adette]

The sadness of your camouflaged smile
Do you not realise I see beyond the guise
Tears flowing behind soft eyes
A heart now broken by deception and lies

Your heart shattered ~ pierced by his goodbye
No man is worth such sacrifice
The cruelness of his betrayal
Why torture yourself suffer such grief

Broken wedding vows
The heartbreak ~ the cruellest of blows
Temptation her name
She was not going to play the waiting game

She wanted him
So fatal her attraction ~ desperate her needs
She plays her hand
His moment of weakness ~ she would not let go

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You gave your heart
Distraught you hide within the open wound
Don’t let it fester
It will cause nothing but bitterness and pain

You are worth
Much more ~ don’t hide yourself away
Trust now broken
There is no turning back ~ let go

Open your heart
Re-kindle its flame ~ to passion not pain

A new path awakens
The past sleeps in memory ~ dream
That special dream is just a kiss away
Listen for its call

I like the poem. It's very moving with a touch of hope.

In the spirit of Valentines day...Can you really die from a broken heart?

[Adette]

Though people have I doubt it - the world would collapse we need love
dont we? Some people who have been together for years and years
cannot bear to be apart and have been known to die of a broken heart

[Stella]

i do know of couples who have died just days apart grieving for their lost partner, but in general we do go through a grieving process and come out of it heart intact. Love , of course has many facets. ♥

So agree Stella and have altered my previous lines sometimes miss out letters due to the blindness in left eye I really will have to double check - it looks right 1st time round
