Chipping away at my heart
are words of hurt and pain.
Chiseled out from anguish
that I've relived once again.
Each peck of the verbal hammer
chipping away at my heart;
your hopes that is has destroyed,
to watch me fall apart.
But let me tell you something,
I have vowed to not be blue.
Chipping away at my heart,
no more memories of you.
And so I've opened up my wings
as a new life I will start;
your hurtful ways can't be found
chipping away at my heart.
are words of hurt and pain.
Chiseled out from anguish
that I've relived once again.
Each peck of the verbal hammer
chipping away at my heart;
your hopes that is has destroyed,
to watch me fall apart.
But let me tell you something,
I have vowed to not be blue.
Chipping away at my heart,
no more memories of you.
And so I've opened up my wings
as a new life I will start;
your hurtful ways can't be found
chipping away at my heart.

HOOD-WINKED!
You've really caught the essence of what was asked for, this poem is ethereal and has lead my senses in a most possitive way, because I can relate...you have penned with a deep emotion which grabs the reader and I like the title and third stanza, because it shows stubborness...I'm so glad I came to read this wonderful engaging poem...congratulations on the gold, well deserved
