I broke down in tears <br />When I told you my fears <br />You patted my back <br />Then left me to pick up the slack <br />I kept waiting thinking you’d turn around <br />But you were gone without a sound <br />It wasn’t easy to say in the least <br />For my heart was broken and I had to pick up each piece <br />How could I ever have thought you cared <br />If I’d known my heart would have been spared<br /><br />Payyton Egerstaffer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-heart-to-spare/
