Breaks My Heart In Two

broken20heart1As the days come and go I try not to think of you. But I do anyway. Attempting to make those thoughts go away only causes more loneliness for you. As difficult as missing you is, it’s not the hardest part. Knowing I once had you is what breaks my heart in two. E.C.

to weep with their whole heart,
don’t know how to laugh either.

The Thought of Losing You

broken20heart1No matter how long the truth is left unspoken, it still remains true. We can’t be together now. You have your wife; I have a husband; we both have little ones. Oh, the children; the children. We love them so much and could never leave our kids while they are so small. E.L.

saying goodbye

Love can come and go
receiving less than it deserves.
It’s all part of the game,
the same game that’s
driving me insane.
And I never felt so deep,
so deeply in love.
I can’t even speak
my eyes are welling up.
The thought of losing you
is killing me and I know
it’s killing you.
Quincy Mumford

My Prayers

broken20heart1Many times I have prayed for my memories of you to let go their strong hold on me. My prayers are those of a beggar pleading in desperation to be free. PLEASE open my heart to love again. He is never coming back. Please help me find happiness with another. R.L.

I dim my lights & lock my door,
as I spread your pictures on the floor.
I blow the dust off of our past.
I let it all come flooding back,
cause it’s not easy being strong.

Fearing the Things that Make Me Happy

broken20heart1I don’t reveal some of what I fear most. I work overtime keeping them hidden and veiled. I walk around all day fearing the things that make me happy. I have been doing that for my entire life. It’s crazy that I pushed you away because I am afraid of losing you. V.T.

I’m so confused…
I mean, I want to let go…
I want to let go of all this pain,
but I’m afraid I’ll go insane…
he may come back.
I have some hope,
but with everything else,
how can I cope.
I’m going to let go,
but if I wait and see,
will he come back to me?

Lock My Heart Up

broken20heart1I wanna believe you’re a perfect guy and everything you seem is true. You’re that book, with the pretty cover, that I just can’t wait to get into. Now I’ve read far enough into you I can’t put you down, I fear there will be a twist and by the last page I’ll be heartbroken. E.O.

Dont-fall-in-love

You have something that is mine;
You took it all, not just part;
It was very close to me, now it’s gone;
That’s right love, you took my heart.

So lock my heart up tight;
Make sure no one can take it;
Don’t let it out of sight;
Love, please try not to break it.

Echoes of His Own Thoughts

I feel like I am dead but still breathing. Food has no taste. Nothing holds my attention. I hardly speak. When I need to sleep I can’t. When I’m awake all I want to do is to escape into a nap. Without you my life lacks what it takes to make living meaningful. C.W.

The person who tries to live alone
will not succeed as a human being.
His heart withers if it does not answer another heart.
His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes
of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration.
Pearl S. Buck

My Life In Our Past

I’ve been laying here all night, listening to the rain and talking to my heart trying to explain that it has to let go. I am so tired of catching myself wondering what might have been. It’s exhausting to spend my life in our past. I think about you now and then constantly. T.F.

The truth is, unless you let go,
unless you forgive yourself,
unless you forgive the situation,
unless you realize that the situation is over,
you cannot move forward.
Steve Maraboli

I Just Feel Pain

I think you still love me, but we can’t escape the fact that I’m not enough for you. So I’m not blaming you for falling in love with another woman. I’m not angry, either. I just feel pain. I thought I could imagine how much this would hurt, but I was wrong. H.M.

Numbing the pain
for a while
will make it worse
when you finally feel it.
J.K. Rowling

Looking Back

Looking back ten years later the certainty of youth looks like childish chaos. There’s no doubt we loved each other, but hurt each other so badly. We didn’t know any better. For my part I’m sorry and forgive you for yours. You’re in my heart now and forever. T.O.

I loved you yesterday,
I love you still,
I always have,
and I always will.

My Beautiful Butterfly

I can go days without talking to you, months without seeing you, but not a second goes by that I don’t think about you. My beautiful butterfly, what we shared was short in time, but long in memory. Where ever you are, I cast my love to the wind in hopes it can find you. A.P.

Love reckons hours for months, and days for years;
and every little absence is an age.
John Dryden
