Broken-hearted surgery

 

Broken-hearted surgery


Caught in confusion,
sinuous contusions,
this was never going to be
a fusion
made in heaven.
Broken-hearted surgery
brings reminiscent misery.
An elasto-plaster
on an open wound;
a drifting love
remains marooned.

A shattered heart
in crystalline shards
and a shrivelled soul
down a dank, dark hole.
Broken-hearted surgery
cannot mend
it simply tends to
ooze and seep
bleeding your memories
to an agonised sleep.
