Writing You Into Poetry

When you broke my heart
I didn't know what to do,
So I wrote you into poetry.
Heart break stories cut so much deeper
When they're true.
The pain was worse than anything I'd ever known.
A wounded pen heading the way,
A gentle landing to soften the blow.
I wrote my words ever so precisely,
To extract the pain I felt in my heart.
Trying not to remember how badly it hurt,
the moment I fell apart.
Letting it fall on paper,
Learning to forgive myself,
without regret.
Finally at peace in my soul ...
Writing you into poetry,
With love.
