Heartbroken Uplifting Love Poem: Hurt Not Broken by Rodrick Bates

The last person generated many afflictions within your heart. 
Now you’re hurt, because love didn’t go according to plan. 
Their contradictions to love have you wondering who you really are,
But beauty doesn’t change because of damage done by man. 
Another person can hurt and desert you,
But they can never break you. 
It may seem hard to feel whole again when all you know is them,
But realizing they never deserved you will ignite your break through. 
You can control yourself, but you can’t control someone else. 
You’re hurt, but not broken, so you can definitely move on. 
Learn your worth and value yourself more than your past did. 
Take your heart away from pain and do what makes you happy again. 
Then look in the mirror, smile and say “Look at what I did.”
And with that same smile, forgive them.
Not for them, but to release the pain you were holding.
Once forgiveness has been spoken
You will see that you were hurt, not broken.
