Unseen Bruises

Heart battered and torn,

Emotions are worn,

Tears running,

No end,

Nothing to depend.

Pain that is real

Clearly reveal:

Attachments by one;

Returned by none.

Egos are bruised,

Feelings abused,

Dreams that are crushed

By actions too rushed.

Alone without care,

Everyone aware:

Troubled heart,

Not so very smart.

Facts all too clear,

Ending so near,

Longing to stay,

But forced away.

Pleading, hope,

Unable to cope;

Cry me a river

And don’t let me shiver

Without you there’s no

More places to go.
