Broken love
After you I spent years looking for love.
For someone to fix what had been broken
But I was wrong.
If you look for love when you are broken,
All you will find is broken love.
To glue the pieces back together with Vaseline
Take the time to find yourself first
Find the seams where the scars haven’t healed
Give them the time they need to mend
Nourish your heart by igniting your soul
Determine what makes your eyes glow
Your cheeks rosy and your smile wide
And once you are whole you won’t need to find love..... love will find you
Unbreakable love.

I'm a Grad student now studying Biochemistry and Biophysics (not sure how I got there). I guess I've been using this site for nearly 8 years now though sometimes I went years without writing much of anything. I write what I feel and I write what I need to let go of. Sometimes I write about a dream or a nightmare I had, If I can tell the difference. I fell in love for poetry in high school and continued to write in college. I hope to publish a book someday as well (leave a comment if a poem speaks to you). P.S. My Instagram is @CottonCandyPoems
