Heartache and Heartbreak

Broken, beaten, and shattered,
my heart felt like it never mattered.
My heart broke when you left your place,
and all you could see were the tears down my face.

My heart's at an eternal battle,
My mind's a pingpong ball and my heart's the paddles.
I feel like I should forgive you,
why is it so hard after everything we've been through?

I see your stares from across the room,
don't think that I don't know they bring doom.
I still love you but I know what damage you did,
it's something my heart will never be rid.

Why don't you just come and talk to me?
You do it all the time in my dreams.
You're all I ever seem to have on my mind,
and a hopeless dream of you and me is all I can find.

I wish I still had you and never lost you,
All I want to know is if you feel the same too.
You're my first true love,
but I keep remembering how you flew away like a dove.

"It'll be okay, I'll never leave you."
Couldn't you've made sure those words stayed true?
I dream but then the pain surfaces within them,
I'm starting to understand the messages you that send.

I remember those sweet kisses,
those warm hugs, our unfinished wishes.
When our song comes on,
I cry tears and try to understand what went wrong.

I want to go back and correct what mistakes I made,
maybe then you'd still be mine today.
I lay in my bed and wish you were by my side,
cuddling me, promising to never say goodbye.

Just when I'm over you, the memories flood back,
I remember it's you that I lack.
I know what happened was beneficial for your sake.
But all I'll ever feel is the heartache and remember the heartbreak.

💔Dedicated to the one that got away💔
