How can you mend a broken heart

You can use whatever type of poetry you wish. Personally I like acrostics, mirrored and free verse , but do what you do best.
( hint I know nothing about Dirty/Pretty so it will be hard for me to judge it.)

What I want you to do is a piece on "having a broken heart / or helping a new love mend their broken heart"

RULES
-NO sticky caps, yOu kNOw TypInG lIKe tHIs

-NO chat speak

-Label your work correctly

-NO pre-writes

OK, do what you do best as long as it follows the rules.

Thanks

Cheryl

      it's when the grimlins get in your keyboard and move the "T" and "Y" keys around to make you screw-up. Don't worry it happens to me all the time. Damn little grimlins
