Broken
June 10, 2013
Break my heart and you will see,
Just how bad this man can be.
Break my heart and you will find,
All the pieces you left behind.
In those pieces you will see,
A picture of you and me.
Look at the picture and you will find,
That you can see the love you left behind.
Walk down the hallway just to see,
Me but not the way I used to be.
I look you in the eyes,
Just to say my last goodbyes.
As I draw my last breath,
You realize you caused my death.
And as I grasp that final token,
You realize that I am broken.

I really like how the the poem is broken up into two-line stanzas (you didn't space it out that way, but you know what i mean..) and that the second line leads into the next. And the emotion here is great. But I think you could work on your rhythm/word choice, if anything! Just something to keep in mind. 4/5 :)
