    Skinned Knees and Broken Hearts

     You tried to stand
    But started to fall
    I was there
    Always
    To catch you

    But as you fell
    And screamed for help
    For someone to save you

    The name you yelled
    In your time of need
    Was not mine

    I fell
    And I couldn't stand back up
    You pushed me down
    And weren't around
    To catch me

    To busy with him
    To busy to care
    About my skinned kees
    And broken heart

    So I sit
    I sit and I write
    To try and myself
    Back off the ground
    Back to a life
    Were my smiles weren't fake
    And my tears didn't fall as often

    A life were I can speak your nam
    I can remember our life
    And stay standing

    With band-aids on my knees
    I'm learning to walk again

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
