A broken heart

I gave you my life,

in trade for your heart.

Take it in my stride,

Unknown from the start.


We never wavered,

or at least I thought.

Each moment savored,

none that could be bought.


Why do we fall like this?

Oh so painfully.

They portray it as bliss,

but never free, fully.


You break me right down,

right down to my bones.

I gave you my all.

Yet you leave me alone.
