Poem Artwork

 

Distraught and destroyed, my whole life in shreds

Morale scattered in the wind

So many tears I cried for you

Whilst your cruel heart crowed

 

Then licking my wounds, morale a recluse

Hidden from all public eyes

Crowds of corrupted memories

Tainting my sleepless nights

 

Repair and recovery take their toll

Empathy’s not an option

Anger speaks out in my defence

Shielding me from despair

 

Seek to be strong and survive the fallout

Rise like a phoenix in flight

No time for offensive twerps

Kick the ash from my boots.

Absolutely, Ruan. I am gratified to read this poem on this so-called day of love. I wish you all the strength you need to overcome the past and step strongly into the future.
