I see hearts
flying around her head

They make her blind
to his past wrong-doings

She lets herself fall
into ignorance
so she can pretend everything is okay

Happy one minute
upset the next
because of him

She shouldn't have to live like this
I try to help her
but she doesn't listen

One day these hearts will finally break
and no one
will be able to pick up the pieces
This is about my friend who had a really mean boyfriend that always put her down and made feel worthless. I hate guys like that.

I like the idea of the hearts- better analogy than rose-tinted specs. I think you've nailed it, too, about ignorance- it makes it easier for you to cope.


Lovely work, and I love the last line.
