Gifts Of Sorrow-Break Up Poem Poem by nidal habash

My Last Letter to Erica:

Erica I love you,
But I have so much to say.

I am breaking up with You,
with this poem today.

I blame the tears,
For giving my heart away.

I want to be strong for you,
But I lost my way.

You stole my heart,
Then threw it to the dogs of pain.

You turned my sunshine,
To a dark hollow train.

How can I fly with you?
When you tore my wings away.

How can I even smile?
When I buried my heart last May.

You give gifts of sorrow,
As if everyday is a holiday.

Darling, I must turn all your gifts away.

I truly love you,
But my heart walks a different path today.
