I was heartbroken over you.
because I actually shed myself open
and let you in.
I love and welcome
the heavy sadness of a crying heart.
its loudest despair.
it proves,
such things as sacred bonds
and sanctuaries exist
still.
and trust.
and hope.
and bravery,
and honest care.
and can be shared
even by a heart
as beat up
as mine.
