break me... again!



you’ve broken my heart
over and over again

i’ve let you

extending the fragments
of which remain in tact
to be shattered
ever more
by the persecutor
of my soul

i lay it out before you

come…
crush me
destroy me
make me fall apart
over and over again
i beg of you,
break my world apart!

  1. ok, there is a good side to being broken..i cant help but think of cycles of abuse, which sucks, but in the good breaking, turning of my heart to greater things...yes let me be broken...

  2. one can only allow someone the power to do to us whatever they want.....without us allowing this submission they are unable to hurt us ever, sounds so black and white doesn't it yet I know there are many grey areas,....:-)Hugs

  3. Too sad... why should you insist on being done that?
    sometimes, yes- one needs to get at the end of one's tether...

  4. I'm not sure, if it is a love so captivating, you'll take the heartbreak over losing it. Or if it's the kind of love where you come to the end of yourself over and over, yet as a bone...reset stronger and in greater resolve. Whatever the true meaning, it's gotta hurt, each time, every time, the first time, the last time.

  10. It hurts which way ever. Yet returning out of the ashes like phoenix, that is how I always imagined it. It hurts being reborn too. In pain lays our growth. Hugs and love down the road

  11. I would never do that...but I can't find you in the darkness that I am wading through. Light just a small birthday candle, I will wade that way.

  20. As usual your work has a strong pull, and as usual I cannot tell what the pull is: is it pessimism, romanticism, masochism or reality? Intriguing.

  21. think there is a good and a not so good brokenness - the good one lets you grow and makes you humble, the bad one destroys..

  26. Hi Kay. Your poem is brave and honest, however
    I find the picture to be very scary.
