Unbroken Heart

Acrostic

By Paul StewartPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Unless I am wrong, but I doubt I'm mistaken

Nothing is rarer than a heart that's never been broken

Could really do with just this one time being mistaken

Only a baby's heart could never experience being broken

Maybe you disagree, but unless I'm very much mistaken

Most baby's hearts have not experienced enough to be broken

Only as adults do we have that privilege, though maybe I'm mistaken

Not many perhaps would agree, but it is a part of life - experiencing a heart that is broken.
