Broken

I wrote this years ago for you. Funny how it's just as truthful today as it was back then.

By Kelly MendozaPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

All it took was one look

and I was hooked

Never to be the same again

One word from you,

eyes sparkling so blue

how was I to know how it would end?

I never had a choice

Love had stolen my voice

What would I have cried if I could?

Help me, please me

Love me, release me

Only you could break me for good

Now I lay here battered

my heart cold and shattered

Unable to trust anyone

Only you had the power,

alone here, I cower

When you broke me, I came undone

heartbreak
