Broken hearts, love's deceit, <br />pieces fall down to my feet. <br />Broken promises, love's a lie, <br />puddles form from tears I cry. <br />Broken dreams, love's illusion, <br />sorrowed cause of your intrusion. <br />Broken hope, love's a game, <br />doesn't last, ends the same. <br />Broken sleep, love's the cause, <br />digs at me with sharpened claws. <br />Broken spirit, love of sorrow, <br />stolen now is my tomorrow. <br />Broken life, love is lost, <br />Broken now and that's the cost.<br /><br />Rachel Barnett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/broken-149/
