“We dream in our waking moments, and walk in our sleep.” -scarlett letter


His lips were my passion,
His heart was my gold,
His body was stable, for me to hold,
His tears were my diamonds,
His pain was my jewel,
And our love has dried to an empty pool,
Renewal quenched my aching thirst,
The new kisses on my lips were worse,
Never before, something so dead,
Remorse sucked my skin, darkened with dread,
Was once an art, now a lethal weapon,
I was played for the your affection,
Blasted your soul as you played my mind,
Said our love was “one of a kind”,
You told me “he didn’t love you, he wouldn’t dare.”
Lied and pretended you deeply cared.
Now you were a fool, not I, nor he,
Luckily he'll always hold the key.

Just another heart break. Everyone has them eventually. It's always worse when you know it was your fault... because you let yourself be so weak.

Good poem :), you can definately feel your heartache. i can relate to you completely, i'v had my heart broken many times you just have to remember that there are more fish in the sea. I also wanted to tell you i finished writing that poem you requested about young love. It's entitled "Puppy Love" if you wanna read it
