I think it speaks for itself, no?

Heart of Mine

here, take this heart of mine
I have no use for it anymore
I know this is the right time
and I just don't want it anymore
It breathes cold air
as it stings my every thought
my eyes hold a vacant stare
I have no more heart
Its purpose lost its place
I know that I'll never be the same
I'm haunted by your face
that I know will never feel the same
letting go is the hardest thing I've ever had to do
letting you go is the saddest thing I've ever had to do
but I guess, its what I have to do
take this here heart out of my chest
leave it withering in all its glory
you had the best now take the rest
and leave me here with the blame and worry
I lost you somewhere along the way
and yet you forgot to let me in
life is now only a series of days
without you, nothing sinks in
you see, you are my heart
you owned all of its wonderful pieces
and now you and I are far apart
no longer will we seize it
so please take this here heart out of me
and split it into a million little parts
for I will no longer need the heartbeats
I no longer have a heart

sometimes the best medicine for a broken heart is sharing your story. deconstructing it and reconstructing it again as a piece of art. like you did here with this poem. to get comments from people who have been through this same song and dance can also help you out. kind of like AA for broken hearts. so thank you for not keeping the pain in. hope it makes you feel better and grow a little stronger as the days pass. keep writing. it will help. as it did me. as it will you.

Yes letting go of love is the hardest thing (it seems like) to do! but it makes you a better lover for someone else!

This tells it all. I know what it is like to feel this way...it's the worst! This is a beautiful lament, for love lost. Your good.

thank you so much! I really appreciate that. It's nice to know that someone else can empathize with you.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
