…is the room of the broken heart

Capacity reached

Forlornly trying to seek the needle and thread to stitch me back together

So many limitations, so bleak

Eternity can not fix this

No sunshine

No hope

A darkened room that just gets smaller and smaller with the passing time

No recourse 

No remedy to fix this

The repetitions carving the jagged line that separates the halves of the heart

No fortitude 

The pericardium trying to hold steadfast

The core of the heart seeking any warmth that lay within the chambers 

The darkness can not fade

It will not…
