When you're broken <br />You have to hold in the pieces <br />And never let yourself <br />Love too deeply or hope too much <br />Step away <br />When you feel the touch <br />Of new days dawning <br />Up from the dust <br />Never call the name <br />Of what you wish <br />It makes your dreams <br />Shatter like glass <br />Lie strewn about <br />When all you wanted <br />Was just one wish <br />To mend the broken soul <br />That loved too deeply <br />And hoped too much <br />Punishing you, leaving you <br />To hold in the pieces <br />While they turn to dust<br /><br />Violet Llewellyn<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/broken-pieces-of-emotion/
