The fragile thread

// November 1st, 2008 // My Life

from where comes this aching heart

that falls to earth and breaks apart
the fragile thread that held it close 
was broken by another’s choice
the choice to love or not is ours
but love withdrawn is fraught with scars
the heart that breaks before it falls
has just the pain of empty halls
but hearts are hearts whether falling or broken
and the fragile thread is only “LOVE” spoken
