The tears of a broken heart are true
They glisten on the cheeks of a beautiful lady; the lady who is you
Tears flow only if the feelings are real
They flow from a heart that truly feels
From a heart that is broken; a strong beautiful person appears
A person whose heart is now bright; it no longer fears
For the fear that once held it ever so strong
It now sees that to keep the fear is wrong
To give; to share; to openly be honest and kind
That is what we all truly want to find
So keep reaching for the stars
And you will find that what you seek is not very far
It is close inside of your beautiful heart
So hold it close; caress is with love; with it never part
Author notes
This is for you my dear Heartnsoul; as I sit here thinking of our conversation these thoughts and feelings seemed to flow ever so easily. Never fear dear Michelle; for the loving and caring and giving heart that beats inside of you makes you the beautiful person that we have come to know. I sincerely hope that this touches that wonderful heart and cheers it up my dear friend.

My dear Sapphire; last evening her and I had a conversation that I could remember that I had just gone through the same thing and I was feeling her pain and sorrow. She said she was going for a walk and I could sense that she would be a lot better after the walk; I know that a quiet and peaceful walk does wonders for a questioning heart and soul. I was thinking of her last night and these words came to me so I wrote them for her. I thank you so sincerely for your wonderful comments; they always mean the world to me.
-
This is simply beautiful, a wonderful poem that comes straight from your heart. As does everything you write. so much has been said with so few words. The rhyme and flow of this poem are great but what makes it even greater is that you can feel every word that was spoken
I am sure Heartnsoul will be deeply touched by this wonderful poem you have written for her
Sapphire
