Hubilla: Post-Valentine Poetry

Looking for love

 

By Sylvia Hubilla

Austin, Texas

 

Finding love is not easy,

some play games looking for it,

ending up hurting or getting hurt.

Is it worth it?

 

Sometimes you think

you have found it, and

you give your heart away,

only to know it’s now broken.

 

And when you take

your heart back, you find

you have left a little piece of it

behind.
