'I shall recover, '
said my eyes,
'from the river
of tears
I cried.'

'I shall recover, '
said my lips,
'from the begging
I did
before you left.'

'I shall recover, '
said my arms,
'from the emptiness
of having
you gone.'

'I shall recover, '
said my feet,
'from running
after you
for so long.'

'But I can
never recover, '
said my heart,
'from being
broken in two.
