Broken Poem by Danny Speicher
Broken
A broken heart is a broken spirit
It takes joy and humbles the soul
It feels as if a knife delves deep inside
And creates a never-ending hole
Some say pride comes before a fall
And pride is the danger to fight
Some say a broken heart could do you well
But, I cannot see the light
I've had many loves that haven't loved me back
I've seen many hearts come and go
Some say goodbye and leave me alone
Others keep me to toss to and fro
So, where are all the good girls, you ask
Where, oh where, could they be
They are in the arms of those who hate
Not willing to commit to me
I've seen so many people hurt
From the first day I was born
You would think I would know the pain
But, it's my ignorance, keeping me forlorn
So, here lays my heart, my broken spirit
Crushed, once again, by the one I love
So, once again I pray to God
To send me someone from above

A beautiful and honest poem Danny. It is indeed very hard to find true love.
Lovely poem reflecting the ways of the world and also about the love remaining one-sided. It is so tormenting. But, one should always be optimistic. Thanks for sharing. I quote: It feels as if a knife delves deep inside I've had many loves that haven't loved me back So, where are all the good girls, you ask I pray to God.... To send me someone from above
The broken spirit is the metaphor of depressed human struggling for making their mark in life.
I enjoyed reading this poem..... nice work..... congrats on being selected......
Beautifully written Danny. I love it from beginning to end. Wel deserving to be acknowledged! Definitely a '10!
There is always hope and love just around the corner..
God can help! So praying to God is the right thing to do, keep it up.
Could have been a beautiful song. This is how a true lover suffers. Liked the way you have spilled the sadness in your heart for unrequited love.10+++
