My heart lay bleeding at my feet
I stare as you tear it apart.
I stagger back as you take your walk alone.

You say you're off balance,
So I go and the sides are even again.
You won't miss me when I'm gone.

You were my best friend and more.
I still want to be your friend, too.
But I need time to heal my heart.

You're not really gone, but to me you are and I miss you.
And I know you're not coming back.
So I'll see you around and we'll say hello.

I try, but can't put into words:
The sound of my heart shattering
The sight of the permanently gray skies etched into my mind
The feeling of your arms... I'll never feel again
The scent of the tears on my face
And the taste of them in my mouth

But my senses are numb.
I notice these things, but don't really feel them.
Isn't it tragic?

I got nothing to write today,
But i thought I'd try
Just so I could, ya know
say hi.
It's my first poem here
and I might as well make it count.
And tell me everyone,
What do you write about?

Show me what you are.
Show me what you mean.
Do you love me?
Or do you love what lies in between?
Is it my mind or my thighs.
Is it lust or the prize.

Spit facts like venom.
Show me what it is you crave.
Love me, don’t leave me.
Or my heart will never meet the grave.
Be my angel in the apocalypse.
Be the calm waters for my ship.

Don’t deprive me of you.
Don’t say I don’t love you.
I’ll never put anyone above you.
Forever I shall trust you.
But please don’t love to ****.
Please love me, say you will.
Touch me.
Hold me.
Bend me.
Fold me.
Ball me up.
Throw me away.
Rip me into a million shreds.
You treat my heart like, paper.
Love *****
it's like AIDS for your emotions
like a special drawn up poison potion
how can such a small thing cause so much
commotion
so much destruction
so much pain
breaking down your emotional defenses
like **** for the heart
never leaving you the same
just torn apart
giving you ups and downs
smiles and frowns
your addicted
even though it's bad
something that makes you happy
and horribly sad
then you have withdraw
so you put up this wall
this sense of security
cause one gives their all
just to fall
you believe in something so fake
so unreal
to the point your numb
and can't feel
crying over it
while they forget it
you feel lost
and the cost
was a broken heart
cause you wore your heart on your sleeve
and it got walked on
and stomped on
so now you just try to recover
and get yourself together
putting the pieces together
hoping it will get better
but a broken heart will always need fixing
and there will always be a few pieces missing
so I know how you feel
so here is my token
this was written for you the heart broken
