2022 Poem Fourteen

Untitled

 

I broke my own heart to love you.

Attempted to make a collage of a new heart.

One part me to three parts who I think you want me to be.

Secure all the pieces together with glue and tape and hope.

Every ounce of trust I had in you when I handed you my creation

splinters when I see myself in your trashcan.

One thought on “2022 Poem Fourteen

  1. This would be wonderful paired with one of those sticker collages I was making during the poetry marathon. It’s so short and simple and really gives the illusion of being hand made – with sooooo much more care and love than the person or situation deserved
