Why do you torture me? You constantly flirt with women & look at every one who walks by. You ignore me when we’re at a party & spend your time with others. You put me down in public & treat me badly. Am I crazy for allowing it or are you crazy for doing it? BOTH! T.R.
I wish my brain
had a map
to tell my heart
where to go.

It seems the more I try to put thoughts of you out of my mind the more stuck in my head our memories become. You were the only woman I ever completely trusted. I still find it hard to believe that someone I had such faith and belief in could hurt me the way you did. R.Y.
There is that tree
Where I carved your name
Where the happiest place
Now causes pain.
“I love you” you said
Got used to those words
Now echoes that ricochet
Still in my head.
From “Memories of You”
by Kerry from New Zealand
I think I’ll make it. No longer am I just bones and am gaining weight after barely eating for months. I’m exercising and hanging out with friends again. Once in a while I even remember something we shared and smile. Will I ever love again? Only time will tell. S.B.
Learn to appreciate the rainbow
after cursing the rain.
It’s just like loving again
after experiencing the pain.

Why did you stop loving me? Did you wake up one day and not love me anymore, or did your affection slowly deteriorate? Maybe some people are meant to fall in love but not meant to be together. I hope one day someone loves me as much as I know I loved you. R.B.
The tears roll down my face,
It seems like you’re a stranger,
But even if that’s the case,
I struggle to control this anger.I told you what you meant to me,
If only I’d known the price I’d have to pay,
If only I’d made you understand, if only I’d made you see,
Then maybe you wouldn’t have turned and walked away.Now nothing will ever be the same,
It’s all so bitter now,
I wish I’d forget your name,
But I can’t help wondering…how?From the “The Stranger” by Jenni J.
You could have told me or at least called. A hand written note would have had some meaning. An email would shown a little respect and caring. But you sent a text message to break up with me! Twenty three words on my phone and nothing more. I deserve better! T.M.
I don’t know why
they call it heartbreak.
It feels like every other part
of my body is broken too.

Reading the paper with your engagement ring on my finger, I was shocked to find a wedding announcement with your name and not mine! What a horrible way to find out you didn’t want me. It will take a long time to heal but I’ll never be able trust again like I did you. A.F.
The people
Who hurt you the most
Are the ones
Who swore most
they never would!
Unknown
Only months after I left you a thousand miles behind did I even begin to get over you; to get better. I was shriveling emotionally. My heart was dying. It was too hard to stay there and be reminded of the memories of us all over that town. I had to move away to survive. K.H.
She lies awake,
Doesn’t know what to do,
Wondering how,
will she ever make it through.
She is in love
and believed the one
Who said I love you first.
He says he is sorry
But she knows it’s not true.
“Why?!” she screams
“I’d never have done this to you!”

Never will I forget driving when you got so angry over almost nothing and ruined everything. You said horrible things, then threw your engagement ring out my car window. We stopped but did not find it. Your tears and sorry’s could not repair what damage you had done. R.B.
Paint a perfect smile,
Straight onto my face,
Wash it off good,
Don’t leave any trace,
Of our happy times,
The days we shared
Back when we cared.

You are not who you made me believe you were. What you shared about your past was ALL lies! You got me to tell you my dreams and then said yours were the same. You worked so hard at being something you’re not, and for what? To get into my pants? You’re a FAKE! D.B.
How can it be
That you can’t see me?
I stand before your non-seeing eyes
With blood on my wrists and begin to cry.
I run to the comforting corner between the walls.
I cannot take this hurt, these lies; not at all.
How can it be
That I’m on my own, but still not free?
From an on-line poem – author noted only as “justjosie”
How could I have known when you said “I love you” it had an expiration date? I thought you were still as deeply in love with me as I am with you. Now you say you can’t help it, but love for me is no longer in your heart. I am so lost and confused with no idea what to say. K.W.
I never felt true love
until I was with you,
and I never felt true sadness
until you left me.
