Broken Hearts
I could explain the pain of a broken heart
as well as I explain the comfort of rain.
They are only two of the unexplainable feelings
that course through my body from time-to-time.
One all too often, the other barely enough.
But the levels of a broken heart?
Those are easy.
The anxiety of a crush.
The broken promise of a relationship
Loss of love
Unrequited love.
It may be corny and cliché.
But it hurts just the same.
Something even more cliché?
A broken heart makes room for a brand new start.
Don't forget it.
