Too Broken to Love

Folder: 
My Broken Heart

"Good morning sunshine", he said.

But I'm not sunshine.

 

I'm light swallowed by darkness-

sun trapped beneath moon's craters.

 

You are under false delusions

that loving me is something worthwhile.

 

But I've tried for years to be

be someone who is whole.

 

It's a hopeless pursuit as I 

rely on others to fill me. 

 

I see my marriage faltering 

under the weight of my yearnings. 

 

He's never going to make me happy

and, plot twist, neither are you.
