Breaking Up

When relationships come to an end, the emotions can be wildly swinging. So I turned my feelings into a poem. All events portrayed were/are true.

A Heart Breaks
July 29^th, 2015
Age: 19

A heart breaks when the magic words are said less and less,

and your thoughts become a jumbled mess;

when you feel lonely and separated in the same room,

and the dark thoughts start to loom.

A heart breaks when you have thoughts of him cheating,

the moment is ever so fleeting;

you wonder if what he tells you is still true,

and your love for him can still feel shiny and new.

A heart breaks when you have to ask for a kiss,

when the way he acts is no longer in bliss;

you feel like you’re losing control,

and marrying him is no longer a goal.

A heart breaks when you realize it’s time to go,

and your heart’s light is just a dim glow;

when being with him weighs you down,

and your face is always in a frown.

A heart breaks when he doesn’t try and win you back,

and your façade starts to crumble and crack;

you hate to leave but it’s the best thing to do,

and you’ll learn from all that you went through.
