heartbreak

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

Misuse
What are humans for? With a vulnerable anatomy, Surely we need to be loved and cared for? Keep away from fire. Do not mix with other fabrics.

Sat here listening, it's some band I know you liked. A friend on the phone, pop into my head. All of a sudden, all of a sudden.

Sorry Notes
Bottle of the caliber next to meLife's stature has got me waiting for totalityAwaiting my departure, I'm debating on whether or not I should end it all tonight with my face all numbYeah, you can call me dumb but I died that night- November 5th, 2016That night was the end of things and truthfully, I don't want to walk this plank anymore but just thinking about my family has got me hanging on by a string and not the rope I see in my dreamsThe afterlife is what you make it out to be and I'm ready for this journey of blue skies in paradisePalm trees, ocean's breeze and the love of my life-******* ********* ***** ******You see, I understand shit ain't easy but try to understand where I stand underneath itallThe moment you realize you're going to fall is the moment you let go and forget to stallWe're all working towards the ultimate goalI'll see you thenYou'll see me then.

Spectrophilia
Memories swirl around in my head of that happier life we once lead. With you by my side Reenactment of those days is all that’s left.

A Ride Home
The car rattles with the windows down, But the air keeps white noise, so we don't roll them up. You don't say anything, focused on the road.

A Smoker's Breath
She took a drag of her cigarette, told her secrets to the nicotine, and they let go of it, telling their lies. She put her heart and soul into it, and got nothing in return. Cos for him, she just wasn't it.

Many
So many things running through my head Too many memories of things left unsaid Now I sit here and I wish of all the times to forget you'd hit

Poison
Deeper and deeper your poison is flowing Turning me into a person I never wished of knowing With every bitter word you scream

A List of Things I'd Love to Forget
A list of things I’d love to forget The amount of freckles on your face - Was it, 23 or 24? 14 - wait, no, 15 was the amount of birthmarks on your arms,

Pain Is Real
The pain is real & nobody knows. The numbness is controlling. Can't feel. Blind to your lies & deceit. Just don't care.

Daddy
My life is not what you had in mind A boy broke my heart and I'm doing time I packed up my stuff and left the sun Now in Alaska I'm learning about fun

Wall Flower / A Reminder Amour-ed.
I keep thinking about her. Her features are etched behind my eyes into the very front of my mind. Beauty like hers is what drives a man to do stupid things. Even to kill. Her face can be called none less than perfected art. To stare would seem sacrilegious. Then our eyes meet and my heart races. I can find no other action but to smile. At times like these I remember how much one person can feel about and for another in one moment. I enjoy these moments. When our eyes meet and we smile. My sight blurs for a moment. I don’t want to stare but... the impulse is too strong to resist by my idle mind and eyes. All I can do is stare now. I was brave too late. Life has many regrets. But few will be as painful as this one. Even worse I have to see you everyday. A reminder amour-ed.
