All These Years

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1My love for you never died. All these years it has been stored away in safe corners of my heart and mind. I cherish what we shared and will never completely let it go. My feelings about you will linger forever as long as blood flows in my veins… ALWAYS. M.E.

You’ll find you’ve reached your limit,
When you can go no more,
And you’ll always have the memories
Of good times you’ve had before
So when your journey’s ending,
And you’ve managed to break free
Just remember I’m here waiting
For when you’re back here with me.

All I Have Left

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1I’m not angry with you for breaking my heart. I’m angry with myself for giving it to you. I knew better. Your reputation as a two-timing heartbreaker is near legendary. Thinking you’d treat me different was stupid and naive. Now I’m just another notch on your bedpost. D.C.

I often speak your name,
All I have left are memories
And a heart around your name.
My heart aches with sadness,
and all my tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know

A Bittersweet Moment

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1Out of the blue I started crying at lunch today, not because I miss you, but because I realized I’m going to be alright without you. It was a bittersweet moment with sadness for what was and happiness for knowing I will love again one day. E.L.

like falling down.
In the end you’re left hurt,
scarred,
with a memory of it forever.

Stay With Me

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1Why I never told you the full truth seems so foolish now. I was fearful to speak; afraid you’d run away if I said I loved you with every milligram of me. Like a flower yearns for rain I long for you. I want you. I need you. I love you. Please don’t go; stay with me. H.N.

I’m sitting there waiting for you;
Waiting… hope by hope.
Deep inside my heart, I’m in pain
Because I really need you to be by my side.
REALLY! I’m not lying to you
I don’t want you to leave.
Even though I always said
That you can leave.
I’m lying to you.
You’re my everything.
I really love you.
I need you for every part of my life.

Deaf and Dumb

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1I’m dazed and amazed by how fast you dropped me and moved on. I thought we’d be together till death parted us, but we lasted only until you grew tired of me. So blind I was to not imagine the possibility. Love isn’t only blind. It’s deaf and dumb as well. R.E.

to someone you used to know.

Frozen In Time

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1The last time I saw you was close to twenty years ago. You are frozen in time in my heart and mind just like you were then. I’m a good reason you don’t have to regret getting older for within me you will always be young, beautiful, vibrant and loved always. C.B.

To love and lose, the next best.

I Would Still Do It All Again

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1With you I learned to love. I learned how to live, laugh and be happy. And I learned how to cry with from a level of pain never felt before. Now you’re gone. I have to get over you and go on by myself. Even knowing where we’d end up, I would still do it all again. S.E.

Love can give you such happiness,
then can break the very heart it filled,
leaving a hole that can never be fixed
or protected by any armour.

Missed All the Signs

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1How was I to know watching you marry someone else would make me realize how much I love you? Now I’ll live with regret for the rest of my life. I’ll never invade your happiness to tell you how I feel. That wouldn’t be right. I’ll bear my secret quietly alone. P.D.

If love is like driving a car,
then I must be the worst driver
in the world. I missed all the signs
and ended up lost.

Sometimes I Forget

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1Sometimes I pretend everything’s alright and my heart’s not broken. When everyone else thinks I’m fine, occasionally I forget for a little while I’m not. I’ll be okay. It will just take time. You don’t deserve the love in my heart. Somehow I will make it go away. A.B.

You will never know true happiness
until you have truly loved,
and you will never understand
what pain really is until you have lost it.

A Thousand Chances

Posted by James Browning on

broken20heart1I don’t understand why I let myself stay with you after all your lies and the tears I have cried. The hold you have had on me is nearly gone. I have had enough. I’ll be gone soon. You’ve had a thousand chances to treat me better and have wasted every one. V.M.

There are times when the actual experience
of leaving something makes you wish desperately
that you could stay, and then there are times
when the leaving reminds you a hundred times over
why exactly you had to leave in the first place.
