Brokenhearted Poem by Tomas Sekanina

Once my heart was strong
beat soundly like a gong
then in a minute everything goes wrong
now i don't know how i get along

i put myself into your hands
never though your heart is just rock and sands
you left few deep scars inside of me
those are the kind others never see

i slowly learned to live with my pain
others say this will be my gain
but in the end i feel empty inside
hollow, deaf and addle with broken pride

i was torn into thousands of shards
some were lost, others kept behind the bars
i try to sew them, but your cutting my thread
the pain is driving me crazy, i would feel better dead

you made your choice, as you always did
no remorse no regret, just go for it
but now i stood on a wrong side
i was crushed by you cos i refused to stand aside

i have million thoughts in my mind
what? why? i know you couldn't be kind
such decision needs a sharp cut
and we mustn't look on amount of spilled blood

my heart will mend sooner or later
maybe then i will feel better
when i patch up myself whole
i will look for someone else to go

When the strife will end and dust will settle
we will again be asked to test our mettle
will we be in the end friends or foes
that's a question that along me goes

regardless of outcome of this broil
you have chosen to walk a path on your own
i respect your choice and i wish you the best
in life that will come for you and your closest
