A piece of my heart given for a smile

A girlish giggle
A constant smile
Immature I first perceived
Until we connected
With our pain
Then I saw; Then I knew
A beautiful, torn, ripped heart
Had she
Like me

Laughter reborn from pain
A constant smile
Grown from the soil
Where a flower died
By suicide
Then I saw; Then I knew
A piece of my heart
She owned
I gave

    My name is Erika too so had to read the poems in this section. Such a sad situation you write about in this poem. One never knows what causes others to take their own life - or if we could ever reach that low as well. Great author page you have created - brings back memories - the Carpenters - loved their music.

      Susan,

      You understood perfectly. That is exactly what happened, exactly.
