My Anthem II - 4. Broken-Hearted
The title says it all.
Today, a bit of my heart broke
Just the tip
Way down at the bottom
Rather squishy and round
Not pointed, nor crayon-red like children draw
It surprised me to hear a crack
But I did
Distant and seismic at the same time
I have looked high and low for the little piece
Then I thought that you probably have it
Wrapped in the small of your hand
Keeping it warm
No need to return it
I rather like that you are holding it still
Like I held you in my heart
Until today when you needed to leave
And I cried as the tip broke away
