Hearbreak Poems

restless dreams

In my restless dreams, Im free
I feel no pain or sorrow.
In those dreams
my mind is free of all troubles,
my body doesnt ache with such despair and loneliness, and my heart is full of love
not being torn apart with sadness.

odd comfort

Sometimes the loneliness feels like theres a hole inside of me,
one that cannot be filled with anything but the comfort I find in sadness.
And if I let that sadness and sorrow go
what do I have left?
I fear I have grown so attached to that comfort of being sad
that I will never be able to let go of it.

Empty Hope

Everything happens for a reason. I feel so horrible because it will make feeling good that much better. I’ll appreciate it. I promise I will. Please tell me it’ll be worth it. Please tell me to keep holding on. Tell me that life will stop hitting me in the face at some point. Tell me I’ll be happy, so happy. Tell me I’ll smile like I used to. Tell me everything will be better than okay.
