No one tells you what to do
with the remains of a broken heart.
Should I fold it up
and pass it on to the next person?
Should I let it
thread itself back together?
Should I uproot it
and throw it all away?
Should I chase away the soul—
my soul?
Or should I close the curtains,
turn off the lights,
and leave a sign—
to let people know nobody's home.
