I Gave You My Heart

An emotional peom expressing what it feels like to have a broken heart

I Gave You My Heart

I gave you my heart;
Trusted you to keep it safe,
Keep it whole.
But you ripped it in two.
Leaving me to put the pieces
Together again.

I’ve spent these months alone,
Pretending I’ve moved on.
But take one look at me and you’ll know
Just how much I miss you;
Need you;
Love you.

I can’t go on like this,
Living this lie.
My heart belongs to you.
Can’t you understand?

Memories race through my head.
Most good; some bad.
But no matter how good,
Tears stream down my face.

People always ask me
If I’m okay.
I smile and say yes.
Because all that’s really wrong,
Is that nothing went right.

But I’ll be here,
If you change your mind.
I’ll be waiting......

Waiting for you.
