22 Breakup Poems
Headache
Heartache and tears,
Filled with so much fear,
Betrayed by the one,
I held so dear.
Lies and deceit,
A love now obsolete,
My trust shattered,
My heart incomplete.
I gave you my all,
But it wasn’t enough,
You chose to stray,
And now our love is rough.
I try to move on,
But the pain lingers still,
I thought our love was strong,
But it couldn’t conquer the thrill.
Goodbye to you,
And the love we had,
I’ll find someone new,
And be glad.
Found out
Upon a discovery,
Of a love gone astray,
My heart felt a treachery,
And it could not stay.
I saw the truth,
Through a window’s gaze,
A love once pure,
Now filled with deceit and haze.
I confront you,
With a broken heart,
I cannot continue,
This love torn apart.
I’ll find a new love,
One that’s true,
Goodbye to you,
I’ll bid adieu.
I’ll heal my wounds,
And move on with grace,
I’ll find a love,
That will take its rightful place.
Physical
The fight was fierce,
Anger and pain,
Words were said,
That cannot be regained.
We fought with all our might,
But it couldn’t be won,
Our love fell apart,
And now it’s done.
We couldn’t see,
Past our own pride,
We let the anger,
Deep inside.
I cannot stay,
In this toxic place,
I’ll walk away,
With a heavy heart, and a furrowed face.
The love we shared,
Once so pure,
Now lies in ruins,
And I must find a cure.
Goodbye to you,
And the love we had,
I’ll find a way,
To move on, and be glad.
Unrequited love
My love for you, is like a flame,
Burning bright and strong,
But you do not feel the same,
And my love for you, feels so wrong.
I see you every day,
And my heart skips a beat,
But you are unaware,
And my love for you, remains incomplete.
I try to hide my feelings,
Deep within my heart,
But they linger on,
And tear my world apart.
I wish for you to see,
The love that I possess,
But until then,
My love for you will remain unrequited, I must confess.
I’ll keep my love for you,
Safe in my heart,
And I’ll wait for the day,
When we won’t be apart.
Fall Out
Once our love was like a rose,
Full of beauty and grace,
But now it withers and decomposes,
As we fall out of this embrace.
We used to be inseparable,
We shared a love so true,
But now the feelings are unable,
And the love we shared is through.
We’ve grown apart,
And our love has changed,
The spark is gone,
And the fire has been estranged.
We tried to hold on,
But the love has died,
We’ll let it go,
And say our last goodbye.
It’s hard to let go,
Of a love once so true,
But we’ll move on,
And start anew.
Weight
The weight of guilt,
On my shoulders so heavy,
Knowing I’m the cause,
Of someone’s heart breaking.
The pain in their eyes,
As they try to understand,
Why I must walk away,
And let go of their hand.
I wish I could take back,
The hurt I’ve caused them,
But my heart has moved on,
And my feelings have dimmed.
I know the road ahead,
Will be long and rough,
But I must follow my heart,
Even though it’s tough.
I’ll carry this guilt,
For the hurt I’ve caused,
And hope that one day,
Their heart will be free from this pause.
Promise
A promise made,
But now broken,
Leaving me feeling,
Completely shattered and shaken.
I believed in your words,
Trusted in your vow,
But now I’m left with,
Nothing but disappointment now.
I gave you my trust,
And you let it slip away,
Leaving me to pick up,
The pieces of my broken heart today.
I thought we had something special,
But now I see,
That promise was empty,
And my faith in you, shattered in debris.
I’ll move on from this disappointment,
And find a love that’s true,
One that will keep their promise,
And never leave me feeling blue.
Engagement
A ring on my finger,
A future in sight,
But now it’s gone,
And my heart takes flight.
I thought forever,
Was meant for us,
But now I see,
Our love was nothing but a fuss.
We had it all,
A love that was true,
But now it’s gone,
And I’m saying adieu.
We were meant to be,
But now we’re apart,
The engagement is off,
And my heart is broken from the start.
I’ll mend my wounds,
And move on from this pain,
I’ll find a love,
That will be worth the gain.
Though it hurts now,
I know I’ll find,
A love meant for me,
And Break up a peace of mind.
Miscarriage
A life once growing,
A hope that was pure,
Now gone in a moment,
And my heart feels alone.
I had a dream,
A family in sight,
Eyes glazed white,
And limp, sunset to night.
I felt the life inside,
And the promise of love,
But now there is none,
And heart beat gone.
Chest, aching Mammaries,
And the life that could be,
But an etched memory,
To move forward, can’t see.
Though it’s hard to darn,
To know if it was me,
But one day,
I’ll see you again, surreal.
You’ll know the joy,
Of that life sun rise,
And keep it close,
We’ll play, Mother and Baby
Outside.
Infertile
A longing so deep,
For a child to hold,
But my body betrays me,
And leaves me feeling so old.
I try and try,
But it’s all in vain,
My womb remains empty,
And my heart feels stained.
I see the babies around,
And the families so blessed,
But my arms trying to grasp,
And my heart bleeds duress.
I want to be a mother,
To hold my baby tight,
But my body’s inability,
Made my womb mis its flight.
I’ll grieve this loss,
And the dreams that will never be,
But I’ll find a way,
To live my life and be happy.
Maybe it’s not meant For me
to have a child To have that’s mine
I’d pay any Price
In pain and hunger
to break up the rest of my life
Best “Friend”
A betrayal so deep,
A friendship now torn,
My best friend and lover,
Together, my heart is scorn.
I trusted in her,
Shared my deepest fears,
But she took my love,
And left me in tears.
I thought we were wrapped in red tinsel,
But scissors, snip, snip I was her stencil,
My best friend and lover,
Hopped on him, his new to ruder.
I thought our friendship,
Was unbreakable and true,
But now I see,
It was all pick and chose.
I’ll Break Up from this pain,
And find a love that’s real,
Where all men are not the same,
And friends that stay real.
I’ll heal my heart, its darkened a little
And make a new start, a new web to spindle
With a love that’s true, and not a riddle
And a friendship that’s smart, one I won’t kill
Bitch
Child
A child alone,
In the cold, dark night,
Left to face the world,
With no guiding light.
My heart aches,
With the memories so old,
Of being abandoned,
And left out in the cold.
No warmth to hold,
No love to keep me safe,
Just the bitter wind,
And an endless heartbreak.
I cried out for help,
But no one was there,
Just the echoes of my voice,
And the feeling of despair.
But I’ve grown stronger,
From that night so long ago,
And I’ve learned to survive,
And let go of the heartbreak and the woe.
Though the memories still linger,
And the pain still runs deep,
I’ve built a new life,
And found a way to heal and keep.
Over and Over
Rejection after rejection,
My heart feels the pain,
Of being denied,
Again and again.
I try to be strong,
And put on a brave face,
But the constant rejections,
Leave me feeling out of place.
I give my all,
But it’s not enough,
I’m left with nothing,
But the echoes of my own huff.
I thought I was worthy,
But now I see,
I’m not good enough,
For anyone to want me.
I’ll keep trying,
Even though it hurts,
Maybe one day,
I’ll find someone who will convert
This rejection into love,
And heal my broken heart,
Until then, I’ll keep on going,
And play my part.
Love Lost
Love lost, heart aches
Memories linger, tears fall
Empty arms, empty heart
Daddy
Daddy, Daddy look at my light
I need your hand its cold at night
Why do you press on? Is it all right
Daddy, Daddy your body is here
But your soul…
Its ok I can find a way
I can get strong, find a job
Make my own day,
Would that make you care
Would that make you stay
Would that make the shadow
Of your scowl go away?
If that is what I remembered
Of how you were unknown
Unmoved unfelted, unfettered
Is this about you or your grave stone.
Cold
Cold as ice frozen bare
Tears wiped away equaled tare
Fountain cored through rock and stone
Pulled from the faces of the love and bold
Picked off the mountain top
Wind gusts called loves siren
You chose to love, harvest its crops
Heart palpates fail, Soft to chitin
Blood through seem and lases
Held by hope and promise bracelets
All is won, all is done
Strung by a man,
of many faces
Pet
In the quiet of the night
I hear your silent paws
No longer by my side
My heart is full of flaws
The memories we shared
Will never fade away
But the love we had
Is now just a distant day
Heartbreak is all I feel
As I think of you
The love we had was real
But now it’s all through
You brought me joy and laughter
And chased away my fears
But now that you’re gone
All I have are tears
I’ll hold you in my heart
And keep you close to me
Forever in my thoughts
You’ll always be my family
I’ll miss you till my last breath
and the day we’ll meet again
where life is eternal and we’ll never break up
Rest In peace my dear friend.
Loss of Spouse
The sun rises, but you’re not here
The silence is deafening, my dear
I wake up, but you’re not by my side
The emptiness inside, I cannot hide
We shared a love, so pure and true
But now it’s gone, and I’m feeling blue
I miss your laugh, your smile, your touch
I miss you so much
Heart breaking up is all I feel
As I think of you
The love we had was real
But now it’s all through
We had a love that was meant to be
But now it’s just a memory
I’ll hold you in my heart
And keep you close to me
Though you’re gone, you’ll never be far
I’ll carry you with me, wherever I are
I’ll love you till my last breath
And forever in my heart you’ll rest.
Expectations
Shattered expectations, like broken glass
Scattered on the floor, a shattered past
We had a dream, a hope, a plan
But now it’s gone, and I can’t understand
Why did it all fall apart?
Why did it break up my heart?
I thought we had it all
But now I’m taking the fall
I thought we’d make it through
But now my dreams are shattered too
I thought our love was strong
But now it seems it was all wrong
Expectations are fragile things
Easily broken, like a pair of wings
We thought we knew what’s meant to be
But fate can be unpredictable, as we can see
We thought we knew our future path
But life can take unexpected turns, that’s a fact
But still, we’ll pick ourselves up, and move on
For, hope is a light that shines, even when all is gone.
Labor
Heartbreak is all I feel
As I labor under the sun
I am a slave, with no appeal
My will and freedom undone
I was taken from my land
Torn away from my kin
My culture and traditions banned
And my dignity buried deep within
I work the fields, day and night
My body breaking up, my spirit broken
I have no choice, no right to fight
My future is nothing but a token
I dream of freedom, a life of my own
But it’s a dream that’s out of reach
I am trapped, in a life I have known
And my heartbreak is beyond belief
But still, I hold on to hope
That one day I’ll be free
And my heartbreak will finally cope
And in dignity, I’ll be able to see.
Years
The years have passed, and I see
The youth I once had is gone
The carefree days, the energy
Now just a distant song
I remember the days of old
When I was wild and free
But now my body feels so cold
And my mind is not as nimble as it used to be
I look in the mirror and I see
Wrinkles and lines, a face I don’t know
I long for the days when I was carefree
But now my youth has come and gone
I wish I could turn back the clock
To when I was young and strong
But time marches on, and won’t stop
And my youth is forever gone
But I’ll keep the memories in my heart
Of the days when I was young
I’ll hold on to them, and never break up
And in my memories, my youth will always be young
Power
The power I once held so dear
Has slipped through my fingers like sand
I thought it would last forever
But now it’s gone, and I can’t understand
I was in control, I had the reins
I thought I knew what was right
But now it’s clear, my power wanes
And my future is no longer bright
I had the respect and admiration
Of those around me, I was a leader
But now it’s gone, my reputation
Is nothing but a fading memory, a bleeder
I thought I knew the game
But now I’m just a pawn
My power was nothing but a fleeting flame
And I’m left feeling lost and alone
I look back and see the mistakes I’ve made
I realize now, it was all an illusion
And the power I had, was nothing but a shade
A never-ending cycle of confusion
But I’ll learn from my loss
And I’ll rise again
I’ll find a new cause
Never have it break up just append.
Fading desire
Once I was desired, like a flame
But now my light has dimmed
And the passion and desire is not the same
Leaving me feeling empty, grimmed
I was the center of attention
The one who was wanted and sought
But now it seems, my mention
Is nothing but a fading thought
I thought my beauty would last forever
But now the mirror shows me a different face
I’m not the one people want to be with never
I’m just a memory, a fleeting trace
I thought love would be constant
But now it seems to slip away
Leaving me feeling insignificant
And my heart aches for yesterday
I long for the days when I was desired
When love was in the air
But now it seems my fire
Has been reduced to a mere flare
But I’ll learn to find beauty within
and it can’t break up the love of myself
I’ll learn that true love doesn’t begin
And end with someone else.
