Mended

Having been in love a number of times,
my past hearts live in me like wounds
that no longer need dressing.

But a very small part of me
will always be in love with the scars
of the time spent there.

Geezer

I like the title"Mended".
The theme is one that many hearts have sung and lived through.
I was hooked from the "Having been in love..."
Nicely done sir, ~ Geez.
