Loss and Grief
Teenage Heartbreak by Jess Terry
Just another case of teenage heartbreak,
all of a sudden he was gone,
and she was crying,
its time to get over romance,
its dead and gone
She's in her room,
crying her eyes out
wishing she was dead,
He's out on the town,
talking up his latest victim,
feeling on top of the world
Just another case of teenage heartbreak,
all of a sudden he was gone,
and she was crying,
its time to get over romance,
its dead and gone
He's alone,
she used him just for fun,
Now he's doubting the world,
She used him,
now she's gone,
leaving for another town
This is Just another case of teenage heartbreak,
all of a sudden he was gone,
and she was crying,
its time to get over romance,
its dead and gone
Now she's standing on the edge,
getting ready to jump,
[don't jump don't jump don't jump]
He grabs her hand,
and tells her don't,
he's not worth it
Just another case of Teenage heartbreak,
All of a sudden he was there,
holding her tight,
maybe romance
ain't so dead and gone
Loss and Grief
Heartbreak Rain by Daniel Richards
There's an old heart down on the corner, drowning in its pain
I can see the sorrow in her eyes, tears are leaving there stain,
Picture imperfect memory and you'll see her final phase
Long time they where together,
Now it's a long time since those glory days.
She talks of painful tragedy, from the days lived empty since
He slipped away, and the realisation he wont ever be coming home again,
The heartbreak rain is coming down drenching her as she makes footsteps on the street of pain
Another broken soul in the lost and found
Leaves her another night on the streets of pain
Heartbreak rain keeps coming down
And she hopes it will wash it all away
With the realisation she cannot break the chain,
Her man, her love, had died and left a vacancy
Filled by the heartbreak rain,
Now she can only reminisce of that final day, that one final kiss
Then the heavens opened and took her man away,
Hold her hand in company, and tell her a few little things,
Although he's gone, he never left.
Its hard to see now in the pouring heartbreak rain
But inside your heart and mind forever he'll remain
Heaven needed an angel, so he took your man away
But inside your memories of those past happy days
Forever and always he will I promise,
Forever he will remain
Loss and Grief
Heartbreak by Kylee Bartz
I sit on my bed
And I read the same thing over and over.
I read what he wrote when he loved me.
its over now,
Its been over for a while.
But the Heartbreak has never gone away.
The tears begin to flow from my eyes.
Like raindrops, they hit the paper.
And smear the ink.
my heart feels like it is dead.
Or perhaps its dying.
A fire once, now just embers fading away.
I try to stop the pain, but to no avail.
there is only one thing i can think of
to end the hurting.
I get up off my bed.
And close my eyes.
And pierce my heart with the dagger that rested in my hand.
As I have just second left,
I open my eyes.
And for the last time, I read what he wrote when he loved me.
Loss and Grief
Heartbreak by Lucifera Santez
If my heart would have been page,
It would burn to ashes right now,
If my love would have been cage,
You would have died from too much affection,
Burning my heart in your hands,
Baby you laughed when you saw my face,
I pleaded and begged,
You said I wasn't worth your wait,
So why go now and break my heart?
When you had the chance in the very start,
Your one hateful look,
Would have killed my hopes,
Why raise them high, feast on my misery,
When you knew I couldn't cope,
So many buried dreams,
So many beautiful lies
Perhaps fooling me had been too easy,
Was it all a lesson aimed to teach?
Or just a brief respites need,
So much going through me,
But I have got nothing left to say,
Had you aimed to steal my soul?
Or fashion an empty human shell at its make,
Didn't knew you were so cruel,
That you enjoyed my heartbreak.
Loss and Grief
Heartbreak Sally by Louis Rams
Evis said it so well-it was heartbreak hotel
i met her at a church rally
i should have guessed when they named her-heartbreak sally
she was the most beautiful one in the choir
of this there was no denying her.
she had the voice of an angel that you might
find in the sky
of this it is no lie.
her hair was jet black-in a ponytail hanging down her back
her eyes were the most beautiful green
greener than i've ever seen.
her skin was lightly tanned
she was much more than i could stand.
i walked up to her as if in a mist
those beautiful lips i wanted to kiss
i stumbled with my words asking her-her name
she said her name was sally-and the
towns people gave her a nickname.
i told her that i didn't believe in gossip or lies
and if given the chance i would like to try.
so we went out on a few dates-and to me it was just fate.
i fell in love with her head over heels
and now this wound will never heal.
she had said from the start
that i should not give up my heart
for she did not know what she was looking for
and what true love was about.
then she turned and walked out.
leaving me with my heart in my hand
and in loneliness is where i stand.
heartbreak sally is her name
breaking hearts is her game.

Loss and Grief
The Pain of Love
Your love was like a wildfire,
Raging through my heart,
Leaving ashes and embers behind,
As you tore our love apart.
Loss and Grief
Invisible Scars
My heart bears the scars,
Of your love and your lies,
Invisible, yet ever-present,
They haunt me as time flies.
Loss and Grief
Fading Love
Once your love burned bright,
Like stars in the darkest night,
But now it flickers and fades,
Leaving me with an empty space.
Loss and Grief
A Heart in Pieces
My heart shattered into a million pieces,
As you walked away with ease,
I try to pick up the fragments,
But the pain never seems to cease.
Medium Poems
Loss and Grief
"Lost Love"
Oh, how the heart can ache
When love that was so strong
Just shatters and breaks
And you feel like nothing you do is right
Everything just feels so wrong
The memories still linger
Haunting every waking hour
Tears streak down your face
As you wonder why love turned sour
You try to carry on
Pretending you're okay
But inside you're just a lost soul
Longing for love to come your way
Loss and Grief
"Broken Heart"
My heart, once whole and pure
Now lies shattered on the floor
How can you move on
When you just can't take it anymore?
The pain is deep
It cuts like a knife
You try to find comfort
In the darkness of the night
Broken promises and shattered dreams
Are all that you have left it seems
The love that you once shared
Is now just a distant memory
You pick up the pieces
Trying to put it back together
But deep down you know
It will never be as beautiful as ever
Loss and Grief
"Goodbye Love"
It's hard to say goodbye
To someone you once loved
The memories will linger on
As you silently pray to the heavens above
The future you once dreamed of
Now crumbles in your hands
The love you thought you would always have
Slips away like grains of sand
The pain is just too much
As your heart slowly breaks in two
You try to find the strength to carry on
But deep inside you know it's time to say adieu.
Long Poems
Loss and Grief
Shattered Hearts
Our love was once a tapestry
Woven with threads of gold and silver
But now the threads have come undone
Leaving us with shattered hearts, bitter
The memories we shared together
Are now nothing but painful reminders
Of what we once had and now have lost
Leaving us broken and trying to find answers
Where did we go wrong?
What could we have done differently?
Questions that plague our minds
As we try to cope with our misery
The days drag on, the nights are long
Every moment feels like eternity
We try to move on, to forget the pain
But our hearts refuse to let it be
We try to fill the void with other things
But nothing can replace what we had
We try to love again, but it never feels the same
Leaving us feeling empty and sad
Our love was once a flame burning bright
But now it's been reduced to ashes and dust
Our hearts may never fully heal
But we have to learn to let go and trust
Trust in ourselves and in the future
That one day we will find love again
Until then, we'll hold onto our shattered hearts
And try to mend them, even if it's just a fraction.
