A tiny pill
To ease the pain
Release the conscious
And float, again
*
A broken heart
This gaping hole
An empty place
Her troubled soul
*
Anguish dominates
Anxiety reigns
Hour after hour
Memories stain
*
A heart so shattered
Unsure, abandoned
Make them go away
Those with their hand in
*
Ripping apart
Nothing left, no beat
Lost in the fog
Of another defeat

I reality enjoyed the rhyme, meter, and tone of this poem. The second to last stanza did trip me up, as it did not flow as the rest of the piece did. Lovely post.
