Break Up Poems

BYE BYE

DownUp +1

Long time ago someone looked in my eyes
Told me they loved me
As the kids played nearby
And then smiled and said
Bye Bye

Now someone gotta be there
And I gladly took the task
But it broke my heart
To see kids cry
Bye Bye

The years go by
They take their toll
The little girl has to go
Away from here she thinks she knows
Bye Bye

Long time ago someone told me a lie
Now I’m all better
Found me the truth
And someone’s gotta fly
Bye Bye

Stole My Heart

DownUp 0

Why do I try to care so much?
To be thrown to the side

I have never turned an evil eye
To you then why do you do it to me?

I always said I love you
No matter what happens

You broke my heart once but
It keeps breaking with every new girl

How can you have a hold onto my
Heart that is this strong that my
Heart breaks every time

You are my sunshine in this dark and
Hateful world

My heart won’t stop
Breaking over you

Just end me now and take
My heart out of my body
So you can keep it forever

Hurt

DownUp 0

You hurt me so;
Why, I do not know
This always happens,
Yet you expect me to just come running back to you
Because of you,
We are apart
Why you hurt me, I do not know
And now, I don’t care anymore
Because,
You hurt me so.

Break Up Splinter

DownUp 0

It was so cold,
colder than winter
let’s reveal the story untold,
of the : BREAK UP SPLINTER

” Once upon a time,
were two normal friends
something didn’t rhyme,
they started to cross hands

Day after day,
their hearts got bigger
then finally found a way,
to pull the emotions’ trigger

They were at the peak, but there was a missing link
their love started to leak, and the relationship started to sink

The two lost will,
the ship kept going down
his anger began to drill,
she lost her right in his crown

Everybody went asking,
the reason they fell apart
but none saw the lies masking,
the believed he broke her heart ”

Many still don’t know,
it was just a temporarily hook
please before you go,
pass this miserable book

Anyway the story didn’t end,
wait untill next winter
maybe another ship will be at hand,
and someone new…
will leave another break up splinter…

Broken Inside

DownUp -1

Well I couldn’t tell you why she felt that way,
She felt it everyday.
And I couldn’t help her,
I just watched her make the same mistakes again.

What’s wrong, what’s wrong now?
Too many, too many problems.
Don’t know where she belongs, where she belongs.
She wants to go home, but nobody’s home.
It’s where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.

Open your eyes and look outside, find the reasons why.
You’ve been rejected, and now you can’t find what you left behind.
Be strong, be strong now.
Too many, too many problems.
Don’t know where she belongs, where she belongs.
She wants to go home, but nobody’s home.
It’s where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.

Her feelings she hides.
Her dreams she can’t find.
She’s losing her mind.
She’s fallen behind.
She can’t find her place.
She’s losing her faith.
She’s fallen from grace.
She’s all over the place.
Yeah,oh

She wants to go home, but nobody’s home.
It’s where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.

She’s lost inside, lost inside

BROKEN HEART

DownUp 0

She looked at him
And in his eyes
Held the future
His smile was weak
His heart was pounding
The night was growing chilled
The layed on the grass
hand in hand until he had to spill
He loved her like no other he said
His words were cold
His heart with dread
She closed her eyes and giggled
She shivered with his warmth
The stars above them bright
The night sky held her secrets
The doubts and the pain
Twill the morning bring love
Or will i bring sorrow
Will it b a better 2morrow?
He calls her up its him not her
She is so seriously disturbed
She says okay with a flat tone
Other people other days
With the sun and the haze
She opens her eyes
He was there she could swear
she touched him but was only air
she goes into the bathroom
to look in the mirror
she finds some cuts along her body
did she do them
or was it him in her dream
She felt her chest her heart alive
Pounding with fury
The blood on the floor
She passes out on the floor
She wakes up to find herself gone
She looks above there is no light
She can hear voices but she no one
She opens her eyes again and sees him but has not real
She looks at the blood on her shirt which isn’t there at all
She realizes she has
a broken heart.

The Aftermath

DownUp 0

They said it would hurt,
They said I’d feel pain,
But I still didn’t get it.
And now?
I’ll never be the same.

I miss the way we talk,
Laugh like there’s nothing wrong,
Stare into each others eyes,
It’s all over now.
I feel like I can’t be strong.

He said he would wait,
For me to sort things out,
But he found someone else.
And “I still love you!”
Is all I ever want to shout.

Inside My Head

DownUp -1

Not knowing why is the biggest problem.
Every time i think of you i want to break down and cry.

I want your arms around me.
I want to hear ‘i love you’.
i wish i could make you see.

How hard it was to say goodbye.
you were, and always will be my everything.
But i have no strength left to try.

So please take this as my last goodbye.

Moving Forward

DownUp 0

I was moving through life
at a snail’s pace,
but now with confidence
and a smile on my face.
I have sped up the speed…
for that person in need
has succeeded,
has discovered,
that she was born
to write words
for others to read.

Move On

DownUp 0

I told you yes
but I had no idea
the end would be a mess.
I didn’t mean to hurt you.
No need to glare.
It’s what I needed to do.
Later on, this won’t mean a thing
this breakup that tore you apart
will no longer sting.
What we had is gone.
Please forgive me
and just move on.

I am me

DownUp +19

I am me,
I just wanted to be free.
But all I could see
Is who you wanted me to be.

I longed to soar
to know I deserved more
you couldn’t open your eyes
And Look through my disguise

As I screamed with rage
in that gilded cage
Your love, it decieved
Silly me, I believed
Your pathetic lie
Then you said good bye

From that day on
I grew strong
I saw we didn’t belong
In the world of “ever after”
It was just a disaster.

Now I am free
Could it be
It’s time for me?

Friends

DownUp +1

Friends !

So many folk I have known in my life
sharing the sorrow the joy and the strife
chums at the school that I knew oh so well
who went off to war and in foreign fields fell
girls at the school who went on to dance
and some that I even took out to romance
family and friends that are scattered all over
who all sailed away from the white cliffs of Dover
pals that I knew in the pubs and the clubs
some now long gone to the sky up above
they shared our sorrow our joys and emotions
and rejoiced with us if we got promotion
I think of them often all the ones that I knew
In the army in wartime that bright happy crew
Where are they now I muse and I ponder
Are they alive are they dead I sit and I wonder
Their faces I see at times in my dreams
As I ponder the purpose of life and it’s schemes
Where have they gone all these men that I knew
Who served in the colours of the red white and blue
We all swore to write and to all keep in touch
But with all of those names it was really too much
For we all live our lives in our own present sphere
And socialise gladly with the folks who are here
Fond memories fade as the years they pass by
And some of the sadness can make us all cry
But the past is a memory fading too soon
And the morning of life has become afternoon
Then as we move on into the gentle twilight
Be prepared for the dark as we move into night
And as we sail undisturbed across life’s tranquil lake
We arise in the dawn as we then all awake
For with all of these friends that we all have known
It is soothing to know we are never alone

A break up

DownUp 0

Out of sight out of mind
what a load of crap
because even when im not thinking about you
im thinking about you
and i know how crazy that sounds
but that’s how messed up in the head he has left me
he was the sane in my insanity
so the thought of us being over never occurred to me

why is it that after a break up
your ex is on your mind more then he ever was
i mean i was doin fine
until i started flipping through channels
and stumbled across one of your favorite movies
that you thought liked too,
i didn’t
i was just willing to watch anything to be close to you

hell i almost made it through today without
thinking about you
but then it happened
a memory of you triggered by a
a moment we shared
one midnight summer night
you know what im talking about right
remember when we almost got caught
how excited you were
and how i excited i was not
yeah thats the spot..
that memory fadded
just as fast as you did
out of my life
pulling a disappearing act.
i guess today wasn’t the day to get you off my mind

so you see even when I’m not thinking about you
I’m thinking about you
out of sight out of mind
what a load of crap
i starred at your face so long when we were together
that it burned your image into my mind
so that if i one day grew blind i could
still see you
your image has been painted into the lining of my stomach
i was so full on you
he was the little boy into my Hiroshima and the fat man into
my Nagasaki
you should see the mark
left on my heart
from your blast

if its true what they say that body language speaks volumes
then i hope that this extended single finger that i stretch out to you
and all men like you
tells you more of how i feel about you then i could ever scream to you…

Sweetest Dreams

DownUp +1

In my dreams he can’t hurt me…
In my dreams its back to the way things were…
The times we were happy…
The times we loved each other and knew it…
The times we only saw each other…
The times that there was no heartache…
The times when my heart wasn’t broken by him all the time…
The time when he and I were so in love…
But I know it wont happen…
Only in my dreams…
The sweetest dreams…

I Don’t Need You

DownUp +23

You didn’t hurt me this time.
I didn’t feel anything when you told me you didn’t want to be with me.
I wasn’t sad.
I wasn’t mad.
I wasn’t upset.
I laughed actually.
because I knew that I didn’t need you to live.
I can live my life without you, I don’t need you. I didn’t know that before, but I do now.
You just made me feel better for a while.
Then I noticed that we just weren’t meant to be.
I sat on my bed and couldn’t believe I wasted my tears on you.
You weren’t worth them.
You just took my loneliness away for a while.
But that came back faster than you took it.
I was stupid for thinking I loved you.
You said everything you ever said to me was true.
But at the end of all this everything was a lie to me.
Everything.

Why

DownUp +14

Why wait for someone
when you have a gut feeling they are not gonna wait for you?
why hold on to something
when you feel that they are going to move on?
well I’m not going to
cos in the end I’m gonna get hurt.
I got my stuff,
but do you have yours?

Why?

DownUp +17

Why all of a sudden did you have to change?
Why in the world did you begin acting so strange?
Why did you let things change your mind?
Why was it so easy to leave me behind?
Why have you let go of who you really are ?
Why did you pretend our relationship would go so far?
Why did you make promises to stick by my side?
Why couldn’t we make it thru this last and final ride?
Why did you give up on me, what did I do?
Why did you let another man take my place of being with you?
Why am I so stuck on you, I really don’t know?
Why cant it be so easy for me just to let go?
Why you chose this path is beyond my control?
Why now do I have to rebuild my mind, body, and soul?
Why am I looking back, I guess to say goodbye?
Why I wrote this poem, just to ask why?

Broken Memory

DownUp +39

All my dreams have
Withered and died.
For this is the truth
I can no longer hide.
I was left with nothing but
The thoughts in my head.
And the painful memories,
Of sorrow and dread.
I hear all the voices form
The mistakes that I’ve made.
All these regrets that
I have long age paid.
Pain dwells where
The eye cannot see.
A broken heart
A broken love
And a broken memory.

Lost Love

DownUp +11

I feel a shortness of my breath
I feel I’m falling to my death
My heart is heavy it’s beating fast
How long does this empty feeling last
It’s all my fault I hurt him badly
Now he’s leaving I say sadly
This life is short & full of pain
It seems I’m gonna go insane
What is normal who’s to say
I know that pain is the price I pay
Is it worth it to try & mend this
He’s so easily offended
I don’t know what else to do
I’m lost I’m hurt I don’t have a clue
Another loss this love is over
I need some luck like a four leaf clover
I don’t know why this happens to me
I’m to blame can’t you see
So be gone & don’t look back
I won’t be here for you to attack
I loved you more than you’ll ever know
So turn around like you said & go

Played

DownUp +38

You asked me out, I said yes
3 hours later I found your dirty mess,
Girls, cheated on, dumped and I was next,
I wasn’t gonna be played, so not impressed,
I dumped you then I realized,
I just beat the player at his own game,

Too many girls felt weak to there knees,
I stayed strong,
I wasn’t afraid to break a nail,
I used my power and let you go,
So you could go sink.
