Shattered!

Sometimes we need to be reminded of whats important in our lives. I have a very wise 15 year old daughter who wrote me this poem when I told her what I had wanted to do.

 

 

 

Broken-hearted by MEM

The pain grows deeper and deeper.

It feels as if I will never recover from this unbearable despair.

Colors fade, tastes become bland, and smells are not as sweet.

Things seem as if they will never get better.

But then,

I look all around me and see love.

Even though it's not in the place I first expected,

it is love nonetheless.

Love from my family and friends, who I keep very dear to me.

Without them I would self-destruct.

Even though it will take time.

I will use this love to my advantage.

To mend my broken heart
