heart twister,
You broke my shattered heart
Heart twister,
You tore my very soul into your mixed puzzle of grief
And mixed it into the rest of your choking malaise
To only throw it away;
And mock me with your false friendship.
I gave you all I had, I kept trying to keep us from falling into the black void
thoughtlessly, you tossed me aside
Heart twister,
You can’t play victim over your own manifestation of fear and calculated hatred
I only wanted to share my experience with you,
The terrible parts that mixed up with the decent, the very best to the worst,
And you spat me out like a twister, a new brand of radiant heart blister,
Rejecting me as a bad piece of meat.

There is a Thin Line Between Tears of Sorrow and Tears of Joy
I remember when my mother passed away. After the tears from the initial shock, our family sat in the living room and shared memories. We talked about her love and compassion toward others, the lessons she taught us about honesty, and how she taught us the importance of respecting ourselves and others. Then we started sharing memories that made us smile and eventually, each of us began to relax and tell stories that made us laugh.
