We’ve all been through heartache at one time or another. Broken dreams like broken hearts can leave a stain leaving us to wonder “what next?”. We have to remember to pick up the pieces; for what are shattered pieces of an old dream can be the starting pieces of a new one.

 

I’ve tried to be brave

To love the unlovable

I’ve tried to be strong

To be a support

I wanted love

I got pain

I wanted understanding

I got blame

I needed affection

I settled for rarely

I needed security

I settled for maybe

I worked hard for us

I lost myself.
