His Heart Broke (Guest Post)
The middle son
Eighteen years old
Left for the unknown
The mother cried
And the brothers wept
No one asked the father
If his heart broke
The last daughter
A young bride
Left her home
The mother smiled
The brothers danced
No one asked the father
If his heart broke
The youngest son
An angry man
He cursed and yelled
The mother feared
The brothers raged
No one asked the father
If his hear broke
The eldest son
A weakling but cunning
Abandoned them
The mother wrote
The brothers called
No one asked the father
If his heart broke
This poem was the first poem written by one of my closest friends. It’s very personal and touching and I felt like I needed to share it with all of you! It’s about a family where the father’s opinion is ignored because he is a man and stereotypically they aren’t supposed to show emotions but all humans have emotions and we need to change that mentality that men are supposed to be tough and emotionless. All families have their disputes and sometimes these problems can tear a family apart. This poem reminds us that family is important and it’s important to treat the ones you love well because they are not always going to be around. Don’t forget to like, share, follow and let us know what you think about the poem!
