heartbreak

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

The Places My Silence Lived
I used to fill the room with laughter, not because I was happy— but because silence knew too much. 🔴🔴🔴 Behind every smile was a door I never opened.

When the silence speaks volumes no one else can hear
It's a mascarade With a smile on my face, I tried to be brave Deep within my soul, I wanted to cave Everyone kept telling me I was so strong

The Breaking, The Burning
In the still, afore the rising sun, Many battles have left me undone, My world stands still, with nary a breath, My quiet heartbeat, flirting with death.

Silent Screams
I scream so loud it's silent. My throat closes from the tension, the violent vibrations stay stunted inside. Perhaps one day I'll explode,

Ink Made of Blood
I don’t write with a pen. I write with what’s left. The pieces of me That couldn’t scream loud enough To be heard. My ink is made of blood—

The March
You were my safety my home And you didn't even know Many nights do I dream of something never to be In waking the world I roam

Do I Look Like Him?. Content Warning.
She remembered the smell of his cigarettes The way the smell of Bud Light danced Along the white corners of his mouth "I love you baby." He said.

In Love with an "Incubus"
Struck by words, painful and crude, The ultimate truth burst right out, True colors appeared, a need to elude, An ignored cry, a concealed doubt.

Holiday Romance
Holiday Romance Holiday over, you vanish, gone, I stand where yesterday shone. No address, no number, no call, just a memory, that’s all.

Would It Have Made A Difference?
It took a lot of reflection for me to understand that it isn’t you, but the loss of love, that I miss, long for and crave I cover the wounds you left, but the scars are burned deep into my skin, like a brand on my body, imbedded as a reminder of my loneliness, my survival
