I am here and I am broken,
My life a gift or given token,
My mind is completely shattered,
Nothing ever stays the same
I'm the girl he singled out,
I had to play his game
He took my will and set it free,
One love lost; not meant to be
He was now my first mistake,
He made me watch my friendships break,
And now revealed all that's written:
Love isn't real; love's forbidden

I found this in a journal from what I thought was 'heartbreak' I experienced at 15 and it's one of the only poems I've made rhyme - still fairly simply but rhyme is quite an achievement for me!
