Heartbreak Poems
Close.
by Daniel Shapovalov
Finding your hair between my pillows..
Man this shits everywhere.
Reminiscing 'bout the days where we just laid and stared
at the sunrise (your first time), Our last time- yea I kept it true.
But one mans truth is another women's lie
cause the way I remember it, I was left alone to cry.
"Shy and introverted", walking around in her Harley Quin outfit.
I was your Joker then, should've realized we were just a joke then.

Goodbye to the lover that never was one
by Jessica Tshunza
The self-doubt increases when you realize that someone you were so sure about turns out not to be the one
You saw yourself loving and protecting them and wholeheartedly happy in the long run
That someone was in your mind, thoughts and dreams every waking second of the day and every sleepy moment of the night
You built your hopes around them because you saw that they were bringing to your life that little bit of light
You built all your courage and let them know how you felt from the meaning of their presence to the void of their absence
You poured your heart out in front of them using only 26 letters of the alphabet but creating an infinite explanation of who they are for you
Still, to this day you can't understand how all those feelings were only felt by you

Nothing lasts forever
by Zainab Kareem
I shed many tears,
Until I saw my reflection in them
You are my everything til we were nothing
And now that you're gone,
My heart is missing something
You walked ahead,
Didn't care to look back
You never cared about what you're going to leave behind,
You were always consumed by your own pain
Didn't bother the destruction you had caused me,

my pov on love
by Shruti Sidpara
You will always hurt a little in your heart while looking for the one ,
but its okay ,
what's wrong if a few people broke your heart ,
where there's so right waiting for you,
all the wrong is worth the pain,
don’t hold back go love more.
You owe me one
by Cherry Blossom
I don’t own you but you owe me a lot, a lot of kisses.
You owe me a lot of kisses for I’ve been restless over you,
Kisses because I’ve been reckless over you,
Kiss me for I’ve relentless over you.
You don’t owe me something big, but you owe me a lot of kisses.
So, for once, just this moment, kiss me for I’ve been anything but over you.
Hand me down love
by Daniel Ryan Cotler
Love always came, but never in my size.
Too big to hold, slipping through my fingers,
or too small, choking me in its seams.
I wore it anyway
patched-up apologies, sleeves too short to keep me warm,
frayed edges where promises unraveled.
I shopped for love in secondhand stores,
digging through racks of discarded affection,
trying on whispers that no longer fit their owners,

KARMA
by Leone Takudzwa Maera
THE WALK DOWN THE ROAD
HAS ALWAYS FELT VERY ODD
THE PAVEMENT CRACKED SHOWING ITS OLD
OUR LOVE WAS VALUED LIKE GOLD
YET ALL I HAVE ARE YOUR MEMORIES
OF ALL THOSE NIGHT LOVE STORIES
KARMA DOESN’T ACCEPT APOLOGIES
THEY SAY WE WERE TOO YOUNG TO HAVE SUCH STRATEGIES

SCARS ON ME
by Leone Takudzwa Maera
SCARS ON ME ARE SCARS ON YOU
THATS ARE ALL I HAVE ON ME FROM YOU
HOW I WISH THEY FADE INTO THE SKIN
BUT THESE ARE LOVE TATTOOS
LEFT TO DISTINGUISH ME AMONGST FOOLS.
Let Down, Lay Down
by wilted tulip
it is time
time to sit alone
to lay
to lay in an abyss
an abyss of your love
your grief
your sorrow
your pain
to let it all in
to let it all out

Scornful nostalgia
by Tobias Winters
Dew doth drop with gentle hue,
On petals tinged a bashful blue,
As bees swoon to swollen pollen;
I crave back that view to fall in;
‘Tis you, ‘tis you.
As sea kisses the night sky,
Before day doth due the two goodbye,
I lie; a rock on thine tender shore;
And beg thou to crash upon forever more.
