heartbreak

They can break your heart, but they can't break your soul; poetry about lost love that comforts and uplifts.

The Burden of Exclusion
It's a feeling that lingers, a weight on the soul, When you're standing alone, in a group that's whole. You try to fit in, but it never quite works,

Strangled by Money
I wake up each morning with a feeling of dread Another day of struggling to keep my head Above water, bills piling up high I feel like I'm drowning, no matter how hard I try The cost of living keeps rising each day I'm stretched so thin, I'm starting to fray My job pays peanuts, I can barely survive But I can't quit, I need to stay alive I've sold all my possessions, down to the bone But it's never enough, I'm still alone In this endless cycle of debt and despair It feels like nobody could possibly care I see others with money, living it up While I'm counting pennies, barely enough To make it through the week, let alone the year I'm trapped in this cycle, it's my biggest fear I've tried to budget, to save what I can But it's a losing battle, I'm just one man Against a system that's rigged to keep me down Strangling for money, I wear a perpetual frown The stress is unbearable, it's taking its toll On my health, my relationships, my very soul I wish I could break free, start anew But the thought of bankruptcy, it scares me through and through So I'll keep fighting, one day at a time Hoping for a breakthrough, a glimmer of a sign That things will get better, that I'll find a way To break free from this cycle, and live to see another day.

heartbroken
A heart shattered into pieces, A soul torn apart with creases, Love that once bloomed with flowers, Now withers away with the hours.

World Worries
Wasted water, winter woes, worn wallets, worthless warrants. While we wake, work, worship, wake, we worry, wondering which way we will wander.

Symphony of Nature
Amidst the trees and birds and bees, The rustling leaves and gentle breeze, The beauty of nature surrounds us all, In every season, in every fall.

Last Love
Last love, a bittersweet refrain, A melody that lingers in the brain, A love that's different from the rest, A love that stands the ultimate test.

I Will Shine Through
I find myself fading out like the sun behind the clouds but someday I will appear brighter than before.

You Left Me
You left me when I needed you the most Without a reason Without a thought You left me when I needed a friend Without looking back

A Lifetime of Fear
It's a fear. The idea of you finding me, yet again. The idea of you figuring out where I've been, after all these years.

Fall in Love
A Special LadyI'm writing this poem For a very special lady Always and forever She'll always be my baby. I dream of holding her In my arms so tight If loving her is wrong Then I don't wanna be right. I dream of kissing her Her lips so sweet She's so beautiful She knocks me off my feet. The way I feel about her Words can't express Through good times and bad I won't love her any less. This special lady means so much to me She goes by the most beautiful name (name your girlfriend here).

"The Secrets We Keep"
The Cute Meet: Emily sat alone at the coffee shop, sipping her latte and scrolling through her phone. It was a quiet Saturday morning, and she was enjoying the peace and quiet.

Broken
A broken heart, a heavy weight to bear, An emptiness that fills the air, A love once strong, now torn apart, A pain that stabs like a sharpened dart.
