I like the analogy if the violin and heartstrings as away of showing a broken heart. this poem should have a star as well.

Everything said in this poem is exactlly how i felt. this poem is awsome keep up the good work.

Brandi

I am 19 and married, I have read many poems. I own many many books of poetry. And I am telling you I have never cried so hard after reading any thing. I am coming to realize my husband married me for security and I know he's sick and enjoys playing on my heartstrings, Thank you for helping me put my pain into real words. I was wondering if you minded if I could print this and frame it? Brandi

damian

this is a great poem and i totaly understand what is beeing said but for those who are exsperiancing all this at the moment it is not allways that you are being used but that they fear love and dont know how to exsept so if there is any doubt that this person is not just pulling heart strings try a diffrent approach we never realy know how someone else feals until we feel them as a person good luck.

maria

your poem made me cry ,it fits my current situation like a glove .

Devin

Wonderful Poem. Your Poem = My problem. hit the nail right on the head. This is exactly how I feel right now and its hard to handle since you love the person so much and to think they don't feel the same way. Great Job!

I thought the poem was wonderful. I am feeling just that way this very minute. and all I can ask is WHY.
