Broken Hearts by: KB © 10.5.14

How do you measure the pain of a broken heart or loss
do you use the standard bullshit medical scale of 1 to 10
giving limited numbers like we're too stupid to articulate
seriously, is there a 1 in the pain scale?
a 1 implies you're a little disturbed, peeved, put out
so,  can a 1 be described as pain or as discomfort
a broken heart and a loss should be measured in meteorological  or seismic scales
heartbreak and loss are a category 5  storm or 8 points on the Richter
pain and hurt are pain and hurt
they are not relative
it's a shared human experience
both are devastating, shattering
both require grief and mourning
time, love, empathy, and compassion are the healers
