"It is more than probable that I am not understood; but I fear, indeed, that it is in no manner possible to convey to the mind of the merely general reader, an adequate idea of that nervous intensity of interest with which, in my case, the powers of meditation (not to speak technically) busied and buried themselves, in the contemplation of even the most ordinary objects of the universe."

My heart lays in pieces,
Soggy and wet,
My heart lays in pieces,
Not that I regret,
Ever loving you,

You were my sun,
You were my shine,
You were always and forever mine,

So why don’t you come back,
Have I nothing left to give,
Is my heart too black,
And my head too big,

Is that all I was to you,
Another body, another girl,
I don’t think I was selfish,
Why such a cruel-hearted world,

My heart lay in pieces,
Abandoned on the floor,
Until someone else picks them up,
And maybe I won’t hurt anymore.

© Brianna D., Everson, WA

This was a poem I wrote just before I got mad and yelled at the one I cared about and now I really regret it. "I'm sorry Alex,"
