"There Is A Place Where Broken Hearted People Go"

May 10, 2010 18:48



There is a place

where broken-hearted people go

not in the cemetery where the birds fly high

above  the stones, whose song carries me

while I lay sleeping on barrowed earth

waiting for the sky to open wide

swallow me whole

locked up inside

There is a place

where broken hearted people go

it’s a place that everyone can know

if they just let themselves try

it’s a place called “home”

where Love resides

and inside you will find

a light turned on to welcome you

saying “come in from the cold,”

and a smile spread wide

and a hand reaching out for you

that will never turn you away

broken-hearted people, poetry
