Who Knew

Who knew that the heart,

could feel like a separate

entity, away from the body


Who knew that my heart,

could feel so stricken,

So in pain, and so dejected

all because of you


Who knew that my

heart could feel so

much ache at the

thought, of hurting you


Who knew that my heart

is so attached to you that,

hurting you could affect it

in such a way, it feels

alien even to me.


Who knew that my heart

would betray me, to fill my

chest with so much pain and

pull my head down so low,

to call out the tears I didn't

notice until too late


Who knew that hurting you

could shatter a heart that once

was mine, but now, belong to you

    Love it, Flo! Wish I could say I don't relate to the poem but I do. *Sighs* Live, learn, but through it all ... love.
