The broken hearted

The broken hearted take their time to get fixed. They have no tricks nor get any treats. They never trust the new people they meet. They never cheat, coz they know how it's feels. They stay in solitude during every meal. They watch the stars and gain peace from afar. They look back at the memories and scars. They never voice their opinions and live in their sins. They keep their distance from their friends and kin. The alcohol that thins my blood, makes me live less and want of no more love. Above are the heavens and down below lies hell.  In between we have stories in volumes to tell. The first heartbreak to the last. We smile with a broken mask. Walking the earth like every day living is a task. The still waters cannot move, the pain we have cannot elude. Like glue to a finger it sticks with you. How this occurred we haven't a clue. We know how to survive we know how it eats us up alive. Joy and happiness is something that never lasts. Yet I stand steadfast and strong. Knowing life treated me wrong. How do I change that and what do I do? I need to try and forget about you. 7 and a half years we spent in love. Your one mistake costed us dearly. Today I don't want your memories anywhere near me.
