Broken Bleeding Heart

A broken heart bleeds tears of sadness.

I have loved a man who controlled my soul.
I want to be strong, but I feel like a fool.
I feel so weak, and all I do is moan
My thoughts jumbled…my words mumbled.
He’s taken my life, turned me into a drone.

He makes promises he doesn’t keep
So I stand on the hilltop wanting to leap.
My heart breaks and bleeds
He won’t even try to fill my needs.
I’ve given all I can and I wish I could stop loving
This cruel cold man.

He takes my soul and gives nothing but pain.
Why do I stay when I have nothing to gain?
My eyes fill with tears, and I cry from inside.
My heart begins to bleed and I think it has died.
I want to run and hide where my eyes can’t see.
I don’t want myself to see this pathetic me.

But in hiding I’ll be alone with my hurt
My heart is smashed, ground into the dirt.
I feel im dissolving, melting away.
My mind says to leave, my heart wants to stay.
I’m weak and afraid and I want to retreat
How can a heart feel, when it cannot beat.

This man is so undeserving of you. Don’t give up, Cindy…stand up and fight for what you deserve, which is so much, much more and never settle for anything less than you deserve. Remember, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel…no matter how dark it is. Very well crafted emotive piece!

Whatever you’re going through Cindy, there is always a place called forward for you…you’re in my thoughts & prayers

Cindy you are very brave to write this poem and send it to your friends/ subscribers. YOU are brave!
Would you let a cardiologist perform heart surgery on you without first having anethesiology? I don’t believe you would.
Please don’t give this person permission to continue to rip your heart out. Tears are not a good pain killer.
What can I do to help you get out? Now.

Cindy, I enjoyed the emotional content you have included into this amazing piece as many women have endured this type of relationship for far too long. I want to commend you for having the strength to write and share this with the world of readers. I really admire your talent as it shines brightly through the hurt. I want to reassure you that not all men are like that as it breaks my heart you have not been cherished and loved by a real man. I hope you may find the inner strength and support to find a way out of living Hell and manage to find someone that will love you for the beautiful person you truly are from the inside out. Thank You for sharing your wonderful gift of writing with us all and for giving us a little of yourself Cindy. Wonderful but sad poem…

I don’t know if this poem is truly based on your real life if so i’m sorry. Regardless though this is one of my favorite pieces of poetry. What most impressed me was your use of rhyming. Often people rhyme any words they can think of and it hurts what they re trying to say. Well good job.
