This Broken Heart Still Beats

Trust blessed me
with unbearable loneliness
as you loved away
my self-esteem
replacing it with fear and doubt

Your love gifted me
with shattered confidence
placing no value
on my presence
showing no appreciation
for my time

I cannot love you anymore
for my beautiful heart
has been shattered
Yet-
this broken heart
Still beats

Sea breeze clears my mind as the waves washes the tension away. Belize my native land that breathes creativity and uniqueness with every ray of sunshine. Written words my way of standing up and speaking out.
