New Windows

You returned!

All to late, your name in front of me again.

But do I open the door?

What do I have to lose if I already have nothing?

You say I can only gain.

You're right.

I can gain that great loss again.

When you left you slammed the door.

So hard it shattered the windows.

They've only just been replaced.

I don't want to step on broken glass again.

I can't afford new windows.

Maybe it's best you returned.

Now you can collect your things.

I liked the honest thoughts leading to realistic ending.
"Maybe it's best you returned.

The above lines. Real life ending. Nice use of words and thoughts led to the good ending. Thank you Emmy for sharing the amazing poetry.

This is good. It tells of love that was but cannot be again.
This piece of writing 'When you left you slammed the door. So hard it shattered the windows. They've only just been replaced. I don't want to step on broken glass again. I can't afford new windows' is so vibrant and strong as a metaphor for a broken heart, that you can almost feel the anguish. Well done.
