hearts don't break
porcleain, glass, bone, spun sugar
all can shatter in a heartbeat
it's so overdramatic to say that hearts can be broken
hearts don't break
instead, they bruise
like pulverized flesh ran over by 18 wheels
deflated
black and blue
by some lover or another
and when someone tries
to touch
you flinch
your little raw piece of meat within your chest
is just too tender right now
but not broken
broken is forever
bruised is for now
