heartbreak

They can break your heart, but they can't break your soul; poetry about lost love that comforts and uplifts.

But It Does
You used to watch me dance, Now every time I hear those songs. I think of how you made me feel, Like we were the only people in the world.

Victims of Love
You say you won't forget With time I know you will. So please no promises in the dark Just leave your kiss upon my heart

Relented
I fought for you and you wanted the battle, but you knew I'd never win because you just wanted to feel needed you needed to feel wanted.

Is It Worth the Wait
As I lay in the dark, It reminds me of why I feel so alone, Alone but also broken, Unappreciated but Tired, Tired of running from my problems,

Rose
Leave it be, so others could admire its beauty. It's very tempting to pick, but once you have it in your possession, it'll wither away from admirable oppression.

Whiskey's Burn
If this broken heart is supposed to make a new start it'll rip me apart. The anchor's been tied since my old life has died.

It's Raining
It's going to rain today. I can feel it in the air. The skies are getting darker. There is little light to be seen. I can hear the mistakes of my youth. They seem to echo in my mind. Calling me out until I can no longer keep them hidden away. They will not be denied. It seems that seeing is not believing. I know how hard I try. Nothing is ever good enough for the thing that torments my tortured mind. What might have been. What I should have said. What I might have done. It all seems to rush at me. I am left in the confusing clouds. They have always gathered here in the darkness. I am always seeking,but never finding. It's always sneaking. It's always hiding. It leaves my soul wanting. I watch you sleeping. You seem so at peace. You will never know all that I am tormented by. I wouldn't put that on you.

You
Today, I accepted it all, I truly embraced the thoughts, I coddled them and made them cozy, What a warm feeling! Knowing the waters are finally tame,

Dandelion
I always keep coming back This feeling controls me It has a hold on me The pedals always fly away But still I stay No matter how much time I spend

The Affair
Here we sit in the corner booth where the lighting is so dim I can barely see the food on my plate. We’re out on a date but we’re in hiding as usual

Skank
You sicken me with all of your lies. I am not for you. You are like a disease. You kill all that is good inside. I don't want you. Think about it. I think that you are shit. I know that you are shit. You kill dreams. I want to scream out loud. Throw away everything. I hope you got your fix. Dead to me that is you. No more will I run to you. There is no place in my life for you. What did I ever see? Forever more nothing. You turn the world to black. I'm never coming back. I was never important to you. I am just your latest fool. So I will try and play this cool. I am not as strong as you think. Said the heartbroken fool to the skank. I don't care if you live or if you die. Look up to the sky. Close your eyes. There is nothing for you to think about. That's strike three now you are out. No more than a summer fling. I hope your happy. I won't touch your lips again. You like sucking the dicks of old men. Now there's no more to think goodbye to you unbelievable skank.

What It Felt like to Love You
End of discussion is your favorite line, Sometimes you use it so you don't have to lie. A burden, an encumbrance, a body of truth,
