Missing Snow Patrol

She frequently left questions behind her answers
so, I stopped asking them.

I don't know if she used the concert tickets I left for her,
the ones I purchased for us before we split,

but I know for sure she used a piece of my heart,
without question.

Missing Snow Patrol

Hello, Michael,
This reminds me of a poem you wrote before, about a sweater.
An empty but heavy heartbreak - you've described this so well.
Thank you,
L
