A poem about the trials that leave hearts broken, and a message that they can be mended.
Love is an emotion that takes time to comprehend…
Love will strengthen a strong relationship, newly created,
And over time, love will break your heart.  But in the end,
Broken hearts can be mended.

Hate is Love’s brother, mean and harsh.
Hate separates people and leaves Love dented,
It will find your heart and chisel until Love is what you least cherish,
But broken hearts can be mended.

Happiness brings the sun out to shine.
Happiness’ warmth can be felt a mile away, uncontended,
Until the clouds come and the warmth turns cold, like a dark damp mine.
Yet broken hearts can be mended.

Sadness will always find you, at your best and at your worst.
Sadness is present day and night, and is never slighted.
You’ll always feel sadness, whether you’re famous or the poorest.
But your broken hearts can be mended.

A broken heart comes with high expectations.
A broken heart comes with people overly trusted.
A broken heart comes without any preparations.
But all broken hearts can be mended!
