Poetry / Decetitful china

My heart of glass

Was shattered to flakes of shards,

But if it were

To be mended

It would surly be a new heart.

But would this crystal heart

Ever really know

The secrets of the first or

Would this fragile china I now possess

Be broken , once again.

I like the image you create here, the question; will one love somehow be a part of the second.

A couple of questions;
-Was it intentional to change from glass to crystal to china?
-“flakes of shards”. What exactly are flakes of shards. This ties back to the issue of glass/crystal and china.
-some spelling: “surly” = surely ?,”Decititful” = Deceitful ?

A little more clarity by perhaps addressing the things above. This will be a very nice effort I think.

I think it’s pretty good. It seems to come straight from the heart, and I like that in poetry. And it’s really easy to guess the whole story that you’re trying to tell here. And in so few words. Good. we need poets in this world that don’t “beat around the bush and still end up with a poem that says nothing”.

I believe you’re talking about mending a broken heart and whether you’d be able to feel/love again, am I right? I get that from the “would this crystal heart ever really know the secrets of the first” meaning that you feel ready to try again, but you’re on your guard. Poetry, like dreams, can be interpreted different ways, and most people like to see if they guess close to the real meaning; it’s a good challenge.
  You SHOULD put this in a book of poems and sell it; you’d touch a lot of people.

“Was shattered to flake of shards,”
Something is just not right here.i think maybe you meant FLAKES?

what is flakes of shards?shards are like pieces of glass,flakes remind me of snow. so that could be changed,or rearranged,do you agree?

The last part spoke out to me,i really did like it.
But would this crystal heart
Ever really know
The secrets of the first or
Would this fragile china I now possess
Be broken , once again.

I can relate to it,it reminds me of someone with a broken heart,scared to love again.

Nice job,just should be improved a little bit with the  2nd line!:)

I like it, but one thing that throws me off is the word “Flake” should it be “Flakes”?

But besides that, I like it.
