A Letter to a Broken Heart

I see the smiles and the good times shared
I feel your pain as your eyes slip and stare
That feeling of being lost and wanting to be seen
The empty loneliness on remembering where you’ve been

You may not know as I do know
It’s part of the way life flows
This way and that until heaven bestows
A loving heart that will be your home

Until then it’s your right to mourn
The life you shared with him as you sit with your insides torn
In the places where I cannot follow
I can only exist where your heart will allow

Don’t worry if you think of him often
Don’t fret if he slips out as I listen
I am first your friend before i play another role
I hear your stories new and old

I’m here to love you as you heal
Here to stay in love and in patience until
Tomorrow and the days long after
Where I am allowed to fill your days with happiness and laughter

Patience, gentleness, joy and the deepest love
Is all your beautiful heart will receive
It is truly all I have to give
And what you fully deserve.
