Heartbroken

I dream a dream,
I cry the tears,
I try to block out
All of my fears.

My heart is pounding
It beats in my chest.
It waits for the answer
To finally rest.

My eyes, they shed,
My cheeks, they flame.
My mind is hoping
To hear my name.

Tears stream down
Sobs wrack out
And I wonder
What it's all about.

All that I wanted
And all that I need.
They're all canceled out
By one small deed.

I poured out my heart,
I gave it my soul.
Blood, sweat and tears
To make it whole.

My one true love,
I loved my book.
Just one critique
Was all it took.

It shattered to pieces,
It fell apart.
And on the way,
It broke my heart.
