heartbreak
They can break your heart, but they can't break your soul; poetry about lost love that comforts and uplifts.
The Wish
In one puff, you were gone, like the wind carrying the fuzzy seeds of the dandelion, you continued, the green stem of hope remaining with me. Between tiny fingers which dug in the rain splattered earth, gnawing for treasures left by survivors, nails painted in pretty pink which had chipped away quickly, like the chocolate bunny's ears missing from eager, stealing teeth. From behind the beds of iris, daffodils or were they buttercups? Blue eyes stopped believing, just for a time, that there were Indian head coins, arrowheads or gold; a mist of loss washed over me, my wishes caught up in the wind with a never ever wanted feeling of losing you, my made-up childhood friend.

Lonely I Fall In Love
Love is a rollercoaster you just have to find the one who will ride it with you. I don’t have that… I'm drowning in tears, searching for a lifeline to hold onto. Relationships are challenging they make you even grow or walk away! If you are not mature enough to say I am sorry or to find solutions to fix problems or selfish or keeping your eye out for the next big thing you will fail! But if you put in the effort stay loyal honest true and try success will be met. It seems like at this point this is not possible anymore…seems the other person isn’t willing to be that committed or only committed on THEIR terms. Only one is truly invested in that idea and it’s draining when it’s not reciprocated. Couples give up too easily nowadays. No one wants to love and be loved anymore. It’s hard to find a good man who will listen. The guy usually doesn’t match that. Good words don’t match his actions. My other half is giving up and it’s been the roughest 3 weeks of my life. A real relationship is a team effort where you hold each other’s hands through the storm. That’s the way all real relationships should be. Not going to happen these days no respect is given which is why people prefer to stay single. I want this so badly but, I feel like I am fighting a losing battle because he has given up already. It’s hard to find someone who cares enough to keep trying.
