This Broken Heart

by

Diane M. Beauton

For this broken heart of mine

Weeping silently in me

I beg of time

The great physician

Heal it . . . set it free



For this tattered heart of mine

Alive but without beat

I ask of God

Potter of this clay

Mend it . . . so it may keep



To this impassive heart of mine

Unresponsive to all pleas

I plead of you

Flesh of my flesh

It’s you who holds the key



So my heart weep no more

And begin to beat anew

Let go the ache

And live life once more

Having known the mortal you
