Confetti Heart

Confetti Heart

A Poem by Dressed in Poetry

My heart (always heavy)

Fell like confetti

From the sky –

Cut by a machete

That shone high

As it flew

From you

To my chest,

Hitting true,

Laying me to rest.

Love and life can turn the strongest heart to confetti.
Nice use of words and imagery.

I like the contrasts you create with confetti and machete. Confetti symbolizing a party or good time but cut by a machete-- like a very bad party. Stark imagery-- I like the brevity here as well.
