Heart In Need Of Healing Poem by kierra cuyler

slapping you in the face or
punching you to the floor
are the things a lovers hands does
and much much more.
kicking you in the back
or throwing you to the door
are the things that burden the heart
leaves bruises and sores.
physically, mentally, & emotionally.
that makes it hard for you to once again love.
or for others to love you..
because of the memories your mind holds.
that still takes a toll on you,
even though thats your past..
bruises to the heart, has no limit on how long they'll last..tis as though your heart has had a nervous breakdown..and needs time to regain its dignity and strength..so maybe..one day..you'll be able to..love again.
