Heartache Poems
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
by Petar Cacanoski
Heavy is the head that wears the crown,
The royal blue keeps wrapping round my heart.
Pushing me down, I’m about to drown.
It’s fine, I want to depart.
A brave new world I’ll find,
An ethereal place for your eternal beauty,
Where nobody’s going to mind,
A place where we won’t be on duty.

Heartache Avenue

Down Heartache Avenue
the lights flicker low,
each step echoes
without memories
I didn't choose to keep.
Windows reflect
faces I once knew,
laughter fades
into a silence

The Little Things
by Maddie Walter
I’m used to it by now.
Nothing can surprise me.
I’m not your puppet, I never was.
I’ve cut myself loose.
I could have anyone else but you.
What is wrong with you?
No.
What is wrong with me?
I want to cry, and never stop.

by Ally Bell
If pain were a bucket,
You'd be the largest one,
Pouring your trauma out like a faucet
Unto those who show you love
You're like a raging storm,
Leaving destruction in its wake
With thunderous words filled with hate
Yet still, I saw in you the potential to create
When you saw yourself as someone who should have never been born

Hard to love Easy to forget
by Carlos Garcia
Why am I here again
Time after time after time
Why have tears become an abundance
Time after time after time
Why does failure always stay and accomplishment always go

Things that Fade Quietly
by J.P. Madrid
I think I started forgetting you
on a Wednesday afternoon,
somewhere between folding laundry
and listening to the rain tap the window.
It didn’t hurt,
not at first.
Just a small,
unnoticeable shift in the weather.
You were never mine.

Loop
by J.P. Madrid
Nothing makes me happier than her—
the way her name feels
like a sunrise pressed into my chest,
how her laugh
sounded like something I used to pray for
before I knew how to put it into words.
And nothing makes me sadder than her—
the way she became
a recurring character in poems

Unbidden Echoes
by Mario Odekerken
I strive to cast your shadow from my mind,
yet there you dwell,in corners hard to find.
Like whispers woven through the silent air,
your presence lingers,haunting everywhere.
I chase new dawns to wash you from my sight,
but memories emerge with morning's light.
In dreams, you wander through my night's domain,
a phantom tethered to my heart's refrain.
