Broken Poem by Dawn Ferrett

Do you ever feel the slightest pang
Of sorrow or remorse?
Do you wish things hadn't come to such a pass?

Have you ever felt the stabbing pain
That comes when all is lost,
Like your heart is being pierced by shards of glass?

In the shadows of a lonely night
Do teardrops fill your eyes?
Are you racked with helpless grief for what we had?

Would you give the whole wide world and more
To erase those prideful words
That changed what once was good and made it bad?

I hope someday you'll read these words
And think about what was.
Perhaps you'll reminisce and gently smile.

Then maybe you'll think kindly of
The woman you once loved
And remember life was blissful for a while!
