My Embrace

Sitting here in solitude,
my own hearts lonliness sets in.
Somehow I've lost,
what I thought were my friends.
Each and every day
I hope it will get better.
But, it is so hard,
when you've been stripped,
of all that mattered.
I handed you my heart,
for just a moment.
Longing for you to embrace it.
As i struggle to hold back 
the tears that soon followed.
How can you just leave
my heart on the floor?
I felt so foolish and so hurt.
Why did I open myself up to you?
I guess somewhere in my mind,
I convinced myself that,
I could be the one embracing you.
Sadly I was wrong.
I should not have spoken.
It would have saved our friendship
and my broken................heart.
