This poem evoked the pain of so many memories of a broken relationship. Well written
You’ve touchingly shown the state of the mind of one that is ditched by the fickleness of the other. When a point of no return is reached, what else can one express better than your words? “I am not a broken toy. I am a broken man. Come to me with your dagger at the ready.” When such a position of numbed hurt is reached, it is healthy to think along these lines: “Lead me to a place of solitude where I might recreate the flow of energy through a tunnel of doubt.” Chris, it’s a 10.
You whine and expect the world to call it poetry .. Another one too undisciplined to at least rhyme your expressions. At least you do not scrawl on a wall. Having said that you have turned some vivid phrases. You have talent in my opinion. I shall be honoured by a retaliatory response which will no doubt challenge my right to criticise. At least you are not ignored.
