I pick up words
as small daisies
on a spring field

careful to hold them
in small bunches
never as beautiful

as when first spotted
a memory of wonder
blushing as they close

around their meaning
covering the heart
shy of a truth near

enough for our dull spirit

to remember a note
or two

how foolish can it
get, everyone dabbles
about love, about
rain,
break up like
bread

recycled, steel mill
these alloys have
broken fast
just like your
pity parties
and all the balloons of
cowardice

We're taking chances
Every single time
Put our hearts on the line
Then you go and broke everything we made
But, I loved you anyway
Please stop wasting time
I'm grieving over my heart
Cause you took all
The sunlight in my life, the very air that I breathe, and the stars
Just when I thought we're reaching somewhere
Like a smoke you're gone
Chasing shadows along with your heart
You pin me down and blame me
Cause you found no one else to blame
You have broken every single word
Yet, I loved you anyway
