An Angel Broke My Heart [ poetry ]

III. A FOOL

It's high noon and only few people are around in the community park,

The place we used to hang out and stayed at until its dark.

It's a place with happy memories. It's the place we shared our first kiss

During that one hot day in summer when we take cover under the shade of trees.

"We can still make this work. I'll do better. Tell me what you want.

We can figure this out. For sure, we'll be better next month."

Why do his love for me has to end? I can't let him go like this.

I cried my heart out and then begged on my knees.

I have never been so pathetic before. I was a mess.

I'm hoping that is just a little bump in the way or maybe this is just a test.

He tried to helped me up and as I get up, I hugged him tight.

He tried to get away from my embrace and pushed me back slight.

"You and I are over. Time will pass and you will soon recover."

We were no longer together. This reality hasn't changed even when I am sober.

And the sad truth is I knew for a while that this was going to end,

But I shrugged it off and kept believing that you're godsend.
