The Heart is so fragile,
it hurts and breaks with a word.
One day it flourishes like a new rose.
the next it shatters to the ground

He seamed the one I'd longed for,
Like the tender man of my dreams
A knight in faded blue jeans
with a chip on his shoulder
and a smile that melted my heart.

How was I to know the pain
of this villain in disguise
He'd take my heart felt love
and waist it like it had no worth.

As pure as Gold valued as rubies,
This love that I gave
But a wave of anger and betrayal
Turned it cold as Ice
Never to love again

Tossed aside, and beaten,
discouraged and Lost
Shattered dreams and Heart torn
what a great cost

Maybe this is how it is supposed to be,
I've never known anything else.
Is love for fairytales
left behind in childhood dreams

This is a great write - really very well written and very personal.
I think your style is very engaging for the reader - very involving. Your use of imagery is effective and really well done - it is vivid - painting images for the reader. There are two parts which stick in my mind particularly - Like the tender man of my dreams/A knight in faded blue jeans/with a chip on his shoulder - a really very vivid imager -with much meaning to the reader. Also the opeing worked well.
Congrats on this write - I see you are new to the site, I hope you find the cafe an inspirational place for your writing.

And that is a much asked question. One that has no definate answer. One day there is lonliness and gloom, then in a matter of moments everything changes, and you're swept away by a tide of passion and romance. Like lightning from a clear blue sky, it is. Your poem is well-written and makes its point quite well.
