Let your heart break in the most beautiful way. {poetry}
By Michelle Collier.
My heart
wants to break
in the most
beautiful way.
To know
the delicate ache
of having you near.
To listen for
and to hear
your silences.
To feel
your presence
in stillness.
The quiet calling
my soul feels
drawn to
the falling
into you
and the melting
and melding,
the softly letting go
as my heart
beautifully breaks.
