dear abby
i have given my heart away
to someone more deserving.
i have made mistakes
and i have regrets.
my heart belongs back behind my ribs
not in the hands of someone who smothers it.
it's under their foot,
as a piece gum would be
can you help me?
"my heart belongs back behind my ribs
not in the hands of someone who smothers it."
I like this a lot, because it's so simple, but every line contains so much! I've read several of your poems, and I think that they are great.
