I think it's time to clean out my closets
because I tend to keep
everything that reminds me of
you
and I'm starting to drown in the memories
of wasted dreams
and shattered hearts.

with his flirty smiles,
charming words,
wandering eyes,
and broken promises,
he seems to have
mastered the art of
breaking hearts.
although his masterpiece
would have to be
kissing me once
then never again,
leaving me shattered
with the only remedy being
his heart.

As the rain drops splattered my face,
I remembered that glorious smile you gave me
while our soaking clothes dripped
and you pulled me into your wet embrace.
Despite the cold,
I think that’s the warmest I’ve ever felt.

As the rain drops splattered my face,
I searched for you in the crowd
and my heart sank like lead
when you were nowhere to be found.

As the rain drops splattered my face,
tear drops quickly followed
because you are gone
and I will no longer be running into your arms.
this is super old and i just found it and liked it so here it is

Going, going, gone. I am lost in the void now, and no matter how much I reach or claw, everything slips from my grasp. And I fall deeper. I'd say that I'll miss you until the end of time but that implies that there is an end. And although forever is a hard word to grasp, when you truly think about its meaning, it's the only way to describe how long you'll be on my mind. I'm drowning in an ocean of sorrow, and the light is beginning to fade. Without you, I am but a shell: no emotions, no soul. My heart is gone and in its place is a block of lead, bringing me down faster than a bullet drops a man. Life is something we take for granted until its over. We don't seem to grasp just how remarkable it is. We smile, we laugh, we lose and we cry. And yet losing you showed me that love trumps life. For a life without love is one without meaning. A young man who has loved has already lived more than anyone who hasn't. As I near the bottom of this ocean I realize it's the little things that will make me miss you the most. Times where I'll expect to hear your laugh and hear nothing but resounding silence. Times when I'll look for you and realize you're nowhere to be found. The light is gone now as I reach the bottom. And I fall deeper.
this isn't my poem

I was like a seed,
small and unprepared and alone.
You were like the summer,
warm and encompassing and loving.
Your warmth helped me grow into a beautiful flower,
made me ready to face the world with you at my side.
My roots were intertwined with you
and your heart
and what I thought was love.
But now autumn is here,
your warmth is gone
and I have been uprooted.
You've left me to fend off the winter on my own
and I don't think this little flower can survive.

august came and brought us together,
showing me love
lust
life
and banishing my loneliness

but september came and tore us apart,
ripping my heart
my hope
my happiness
to shreds

you are the summer to my sadness
and september is here
