My heart fell like
Broken glass
Shattered
Into a million pieces
You left me alone
To pick up the pieces
Of my own heart
These pieces
Still cut me
Deep
As my heart tries to rebound
From the breaking
That happened unexpectedly
At least for me
I know
You leaving
Wasn't meant
To cause this much pain
My heart still throbs
Everytime
I think of you
After You left
My heart
Shattered
