Untied Heart Strings

Bring your heart back to me

I never apologized

all the while knowing

it still bleeds

with amaroidal

reflection

when all I really ever

wanted was to lend

affection

the untied shoe type

maybe …

but love nonetheless

the only kind I carry

with me

as it’s the only one

that ever found me

and I am

truly sorry

for that

but there’s

an enormous

world out there

calling me

and I must go

I must!

but I will leave

a piece of my heart

with you

in trade for the piece

of yours I know

I can’t give back
