Broken hearts club
I am who I am. I write poetry and paint really badly. Please be patient.
Once again Invested
Heart in one way street
Going nowhere
Stormy clouds all around
Heart shatters
Pick the pieces up,
This process continues
In never ending loop.
Let my loneliness keep me
Company through the years
Empty promises
Heartless ghosts in the dark.
I may be young however
These words are as real as
Feelings, a stain
Too stubborn to be removed.
Love is for weak
No longer need it
I have become dead,
Numb to the exterior.
No-one can save me now,
Rescue boat can’t find me
This vast ocean of tears
Left me stranded on an island alone.
Empty roads
Constant dead ends
Plague my path on a never ending
Journey till the end of time.
Might not be strong enough
For another dead end,
Pass up all opportunities
To avoid another mistaken love.
Heart now locked
In a safe away from any eye,
In a cold place where
It becomes icy and feelingless.
This emotionless state
Will save my heart from
Shattering again and again.
