Half A Heart Poem by Darlene Walsh

WOW ' such a poignant heart wrenching penning! You brought tears in my eyes Darlene. Betrayal of love is so painful that neither it can be digested nor may be excused. Love is like a complete glass, once it breaks, can never be united. Though it's very harsh but yes very true ..... So you can never come back to me

i have been such a pathetic victim of love, i can feel your lines, the sense behind them and how you feel. so, it happened to me, i lost my faith in love for a while, then, every night i kept thinking that how can people be so cruel (i used to listen to Three dogs song which named: how can people be so heartless) then, i figured out what love can be, love can be that good feeling which overwhelms you when you see a beautiful scene in the morning, smile of your mother and pat backing of your father... nice work Ellias

I enjoyed readin your poem, Darlene. Thank you for sharing.

Unfortunately, some people only stay true to their lies.betrayal of trust is an ugly image, not readily erased Powerful poem. I do hope you and yourlove realize how important a bond you have. Protect it always. PEACE.

I will say to you what I said to Melvina ... Yesterday as my three year old grand daughter left with her dad after a few hours of baby-sitting Goodbye grampa .. take care of gramma! ... I called my son back.. did you hear that? He grinned and said Oh yeah. like it was not unusual (Tom Jones) Oh, and here is a hug. ta

Our ring has burned through the bone My finger is writhing on a stone Excellent I can feel the heat .. toss that ring! !

my favorite lines so far: “My spirit lies bleeding on the floor While my courage walked out the door Half my heart ran out in the street And my blood poured out like sleet” unfortunately I think some people CAN be and ARE this “stupid”. but desperation can make some do crazy things! : “And you want to come back to me How stupid do you think I can be I liked going from ½ a heart to ½ a life at the end. AND I like the repetition of lines at the end. to MyPoemList and into the September showcase asap (that’s ASAP) [that’s “as soon as possible”! ] bri :)

what a powerful powerful poem!

Wow! Your poem has stretched the heartstrings within me, striking my mind with the sadness and heartbreak of love between two people. Anger and emotion are intense and powerful lending to the gravity of the situation of these two people. Lies and illusions are what tear apart love, there is no excuse or forgiveness to be had when hurt beyond repair. Thank you for sharing this poignant poem. RoseAnn
