Tears Of A Broken Heart

My heart knows this feeling all to well. I was once young and naive too! And I did exactly the same as you. It gets better and you may always feel the love in your heart for him, but you will be better to leave now and don't turn back. There's someone special out there for you, and by staying with him you are missing out. You already know the hurt you will be missing out on by leaving. If I could change anything, I would never let any man or another human take my power from me ever again. Blessings! I hope you find what you are looking for.

We fell for each other hard, but she had a boyfriend she lived with. I told her I didn't want to be "that guy," so we kept it friendly. Of course we kept flirting, and eventually it led to us sleeping together and falling even more in love. We talked about her leaving her boyfriend and us being together. She said she would, she loved me, I was her soul mate. But then the weeks dragged on. No break up. She said she wanted to do it right and not blindside him. I told her I couldn't be with her if she was still with him. She said she needed time, and I asked, "How long?" She said, "I don't know..." We haven't talked in weeks. She doesn't seem to be that type of person, but I guess she was. Wondering who tells someone they are their soulmate, cheats on their boyfriend, and yet stays with them. My heart is in so much pain.

I betrayed my boyfriend and ignored him over text after a conversation with an ex of mine, which he found out about and is really hurt now. He's now rude and doesn't care about me any longer. He always says he's okay, but I don't think he is. He doesn't chat with me like he used to. I keep apologizing, but he doesn't seem to be okay.

Well, I fell in love with my best friend, and he said he loved me back, but after 3 days he said that he doesn't. I think he lied because he was so bored of being single, but I said it's okay, but it wasn't okay. I wasn't okay. I cry myself to sleep every night. I tried to kill myself once, but it didn't work. I am dealing with depression, crying and screaming for help, but all of these noises are in my mind. I can't seem to explain it to people because no one actually cares. I feel so sad. I need help.

I just found out that my boyfriend was lying to me the whole time he and I were together, and he cheated on me twice. He was my first everything, and I gave him everything, and in return all I got was a broken heart. It hurts when you find out you can be everything someone wants and still not be enough.

My husband died in February of this year. I lost the love of my life that day he died, but few months later I started seeing this guy who's been by my side through his death. I lost my sister not long after my husband, but the guy I was seeing promised me he never would hurt me. Well, he did. He would ignore me. I would always give him money for his bills to help him and I started getting to see him less and less. He stayed with me one night. That morning, something told me to check his phone. I found him on Meet Me, which is how we met. It's a dating site, and I read what he was saying to these women. I didn't say anything to him, but he knew something was wrong. When he left I did say something, and he said he didn't know he wasn't supposed to be on there. Yeah right, but I forgave him, still gave him money and everything, but I didn't see him for two months and he still wanted me give him money. He told me he only wanted to be friends with benefits with me.

I have been dating someone for 7 years. He's a liar and a cheater. And this is not the first time and the last. I keep on forgiving him over and over again because I loved him with everything in my heart and my soul. I don't want to lose him. But I hate fighting for him because I have a short temper. He'd rather go out with his friends drinking the whole night and then go sleep at his girlfriend's place. He will come in the afternoon. Then I will see on his phone calls and message if I am lucky and he didn't delete them. Now I don't know how I can live without him even though he keeps on hurting me. I love him a lot. We have two twin girls, and I don't want my children to live without both their parents under the same roof. I don't want my kids to have a stepmother or a stepfather. I need advice, please. What should I do?

I have been there too many times. I have been with him 13 years, never once did I ever hurt. He has lied, cheated, and never cared once when I felt like I could not go on no more. Now 1 month ago he took the home we shared for 2 years. I more than just love him; I fell so in love with him. I don't know if this felling will ever leave me. I feel stupid for caring, but how do you stop loving someone? All I do is think about him and the things we did together, but now I'm sure she's filling my places now. I cry all the time. I hide it because people tell me I should move on or tell me I should be over him. Well, I'm not, so I know how everyone feels. God bless you all.

In 1995 I fell for this Pakistani man, twice married with four kids. I left my family for him. I left everything and converted to Islam. I had been to Pakistan several times. I was working as a manager in one of the airports. I heard he was cheating while still with me. He lied about so many things. He was my first loved, and I started to have high blood pressure in September 2013. That’s the last time I saw him off at the airport. He never called me while in Pakistan. When I call his cell phone it’s off.

I got sick. My kidney gave up, and I still haven’t heard a word from him. I am disabled and dying and have dialysis three times a week. I’m all alone. I’m a broken hearted lover.

Rose are dead
Violets are rotten.
A day hasn't gone by that I haven't forgotten
I gave you my heart
I thought we were art
(I can't think of how to continue this poem started it 3 years ago and left it because of too much pain. I came back to it today to try and finish it, but I don't know how.)

That feeling when someone broke your heart but you still love him with all those shattered pieces. We break promises but memories break us. Sad to say that until now I can't seem to move on with this guy who made me look like a fool but I still love him full. I don't clearly see why I still love him when I knew right all along he didn't love me, but now I realized I loved him because I saw something good and I felt something.

This poem hit me hard because for 6 good years I gave my all to my ex and found out he was cheating on me with my friends and getting them pregnant. This make me sick to my stomach. I thought I was not going to move on but I did. But now I can't trust any men because the pain he put me through during the years. I used to write poem because that's how I express myself but I stopped because the pain was too much to grab a pen or pencil to write. It almost sounded like you were in my head thinking about the words I was thinking. Well said, this was exactly how I was feeling about this guy!!

This is a beautiful poem, I'm living the same situation right now and even though I also write poems I get touched by all of you which makes me feel and understand what and how I can change it. Thank you for your poem

Thank you for writing these words which could never come out of my mouth.
I feel as if you were in my mind writing for me.

Your poem says perfectly what I cannot. After being engaged, having a son and giving years of my life to someone; I feel true heartache. Years that I spent defending him to my family that said he was no good, years spent dealing with his alcohol soaked mother, years waiting on him hand and foot, dealing with his short temper, his depression and garbage of a friend; he decided to break things off and tell me he never loved me. I have built my life, present and future, around him. I have devoted myself to him, all because I love him. I hate having to continue living in the same house because of our son. I am surrounded by him, he's all I want, all I think about. I wish I could be angry and hate him but I can't, not even for five minutes. Your poem, says it all. Every single detail.

This really touched me, I'm going through a lot now, I love her soo much, had a broken heart and my world was gonna crash, but she held me, and I cried in her shoulders. Everyday I felt stronger until I was strong enough to live again. Today I'm in great pain cause she lied about she and her ex's breakup. She treats me right but I can't share, I get hurt but I don't fight or complain, I'm just an option in her life, she keeps lying. My pillow suffer my tears every night. But I love too much to walk away

I met my partner 4 years ago. I really love him but I don't think he understood how much he means to me. He has betrayed me and I suffered a lot. I gave him a chance at a perfect life but he took advantage of my trust and love and broke my heart again and again. One day it clicked for him just how important it was to have me in his life. I was as surprised as I was wary. I had a lot of patience with him our relationship and since there has been a lot of happiness, even until today. Patience brings happiness.

I've been with this guy going on seven years and the past year has went down hill. I lay here tonight with a broken heart since Saturday night. He told me a while back he wanted me to leave that he didn't love me. Well that ripped my heart and we seemed to work thru it and I didn't go. He then stopped holding my hand kissing me plainly ignoring me played video game most of time except when time to eat. When he about died from having his stomach took out I was there. I did most house work and helped with his grandma. Look what I've got in return I now live at his moms and am still hurting and crying and I can't even get a call saying how are you. I'm so hurt how about you.

One November cold morning of 2012, I saw her going with her friends. On the 1st sight I fell in love with her. It's my first love. I tried to say my love many times, but I feared to say my love. Two months went over. One day I found that she also loves me. I was happy & excited on that moment. Some months later she avoided me on everything, I don't know why she did like this, but I knew that she loves me still now and forever. Now we're apart. I'm waiting for her returns. I truely love her. I really miss her.

Once I was trying to find my life partner. I met some one after a year. He was nice I liked him. after we closed he was more nice to me. I loved him from the bottom of my heart. I trust him, I care ... after some times he went to US. He promised to back, I believed. He did not call me, no email, no post. I try to find him on Facebook. I couldn't find him. I heard from some one he was in jail. Now it's been two years, I am still in love & waiting for him. I tried everything as much as I can but nothing is changing. There is only one thing is left for me, to wait the will of God. Who knows maybe one day he may back. Every day I am crying. Crying is so nice b/c it bring out my bring in side to this world. When I cry I feel I am speaking in silence, I feel I am laughing in sadness. I feel like shining in darkness this all are just a feeling. The truth is for me .....peace

As I read this, I couldn't keep the tears inside. It is so sad when you truly love someone and give them your all because you sincerely believe that they love you just the same. Being in love with someone can be a dangerous thing, especially when he or she knows that you would do anything for them. at this point they start playing with your emotions and so, at the end, all you do is wonder...what did I do wrong?
Just remember that everything happens for a reason and sooner or later that person will realize that you indeed loved him/her. With time the pain will fade away and YOU will find the person who will not only appreciate you, but will love you with the same passion you love them. "To love someone is nothing, to be loved by someone is something, but to be loved by the one you love is verything."

I am in so much pain today, tomorrow it's my Birthday and today I found out that my husband, the only man I've ever slept with, the man I gave the best 18 years of my life to has a child with another woman and it was hard but I forgave him then today I found out that he's dating another woman..... How could I be so blind, I'm turning 34 years tomorrow and he's 2 years older than me. We have successful careers and expensive cars, a beautiful house and 2 daughters, we grew up in the dusty streets of Soweto together but today I found out that it was all a lie...... I've been crying all day hoping it was a dream but I love myself and know that he's not worth being my husband..... tomorrow (on my birthday) I'm meeting up whit a divorce lawyer ***crying*** I know that it shall pass

I feel your pain. I'm 17, the love of my life broke my heart. After I thought I was going to die but trust me, it gets better, you move on and meet someone better, and then he can really see what he missed out on :)

As I sit here and read this tears fell from my eye's, it's been a year and 3 months and I can't seem to let go..I love him so much..I can't seem to find anyone to make me feel the way he did..when you wrote that I knew you knew the pain of a broken heart..I run back to him hoping he changed but he didn't..I was there for him even when I didn't understand..

It's just fabulous! It really touched my heart! I really liked the way you expressed your feelings since there are so many people who feel the same but don't know how to express!

I'm exactly in the same situation now, after 6 years of relationship recently found that there is another woman... I knew something was going on.. but still held on until he admitted that he is living with a woman for 2 years now... I can so much relate with the poem.... because the pain is still inside me..

• by Crystal

It reminds me so much of my ex husband and I. Even though we are divorced, we still go back and forth. He wants me one minute and breaks my heart the next. I still love him with all my heart, but it comes with a painful price. I'm afraid to move on, too. In fear that it may be the wrong choice. I love this poem.

I'm very inspired. This reminds me so much, of the guy I that I once used to call 'my love.' I could almost cry, It's amazing how this poetry can move you in that kind of way.
