you will continue to break [my heart]

you will continue to break

my heart.

 

in the morning (when i wake)

and in the evening

when i take off

my pretty dress.

 

-the lack of your caress-

will confuse me.

 

and dreams of you will infuse

my sleep.

 

you will continue to break

my heart

as i dream

(as i seem to move forward)

and forget.

 

you will be breaking my heart

even as i let

[you go]

 

even as life moves on

and i learn to get along

without you.

 

it seems a foolish notion

but i am very much aware

(as the wind blows through my hair)

-your breath at my neck-

 

for you still perfect

-the art-

 

of stealing,

healing,

and breaking

 

my heart.

How breathtakingly heartbreaking... the power of you words once again sink deep into my senses... how true it is that even after a break up we can still feel that person like a ghost by our side and even as time goes on certain thoughts of that person can still cause our hearts to crack even more... Fantastic work once again sweet panda.

This is very fitting for a country western song, and, I love it. I love taking a journey through your writings, through your pain and your happiness, you reflect it so well in your work.

Ms. Kara :) I can hear your heart proclaiming in raindrop whispers every single word of this poem. Slip beneath my umbrella and sleep with a silence that shelters your mind while your heart heals.....

hugs and love

too close to home for me. here i am trying to "break free" again. and hes still breaking my heart.

Your use of brackets, parethesis and even hyphens
it confounds me
I am perplexed, I want to learn, they are like silent or unspoken emotions or perceptions?
I enjoy your work

smooth like blood to the heart....and the ryhme that runs throughout is only there properly on second glance, like anyone we want......would make a nice song.........................l-)

absolutely wonderful!
heartache... yet no trace of anger
angst gently expressed
finding peace in disappoinment without vitriol or artifice.
Beautifully Honest

Bravo! david

There was a Greek poet named Aeschylus who wrote:
"Even in our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, until, in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God."

Your poem says much the same thing, and eventually, that part of you that hurts and can't forget, will brig you wisdom and understanding.
Excellent work
