Love Is A Mirror

There was a girl that I put all of my love into but got nothing in return.

Heartbreak Like A Dagger

in Betrayal Poems

A sharpened dagger stabbed in his heart,
Ripping in two, ripping apart.
It took only a few words, but her words cut him deep,
Stealing emotions, making him weak.

A sharpened dagger stabbed in his heart,
Ripping in two, ripping apart.
It took only a few words, but her words cut him deep,
Stealing emotions, making him weak.
A two sided mirror true in reflection,
A double edged knife cutting connections,
A place in his heart forever reserved
For the one that he loved but didn't deserve.
She twisted the dagger; it tore him apart.
She stole what was left; she stole a broken heart.

Without You
- By Dawn

This is a poem I wrote for my boyfriend who is incarcerated!

Missing Boyfriend Who's In Prison

in I Miss You Poems

All these days and nights without you here,
It's a little bit more than I can bear.

The days are cold and so very long.

All these days and nights without you here,
It's a little bit more than I can bear.

The days are cold and so very long.
I don't know how much longer I can be strong.

My nights are so lonely and sad.
Sometimes I can't help but get mad.

I see your face everywhere I look.
It breaks my heart that my great love is what they took.

Without you here it feels like the end.
I'm lost without you 'cause you were also my best friend.

I'll be counting the days and nights till we're together again.
Until then, it's all my love that I send!

Without You
- By Daniel X. Wofford
- Published by Family Friend Poems October 2016 with permission of the Author.
I feel lost when I'm without my girlfriend, whether because of an argument or we work opposite schedules. She is my world and I love her. I'm 20 years old and adopted. Love never came easy to me and neither has trust. So when I fall in love, I fall fast. Anxiety and depression overtake my body when I'm without her.

Endless And Lonely Days When You're Not Near

in I Miss You Poems

Without you, days seem endless.
Without you, my nights are lonely.
Everything seems so empty.
Only with you I know I will be fine.

Without you, days seem endless.
Without you, my nights are lonely.
Everything seems so empty.
Only with you I know I will be fine.
Moments with you are frozen in time.
When I'm with you,
I feel that nothing in the world can tear us apart.
I feel that when I'm without I get left with a broken heart.
When I'm with you, I feel that I will love you forever.
Without you, nothing lasts forever.

My Memories
- By Graham Chaplin
- Published by Family Friend Poems October 2016 with permission of the Author.
This poem is about the loss of a girl I loved so very much when I was young. Sadly, I let her slip away because I could not believe that I was worthy of her. Now many years later, I feel that I must pay tribute to that love.

Poem About Wanting One More Day With You

in Hurting Poems

My memories are sacred of the you I used to know.
I remember all the places where you and I would go.

Time has made me older, and life has made me old.

My memories are sacred of the you I used to know.
I remember all the places where you and I would go.

Time has made me older, and life has made me old.
My bones are thin and brittle; my body feels the cold.

Days when I was younger and warmer in the sun,
Days when you were with me, I was the chosen one.

Years went rolling past us, but I lost you along the way.
I would give all my tomorrows for just one yesterday.

Lost Love

This is about my first love that I gave up when I went into the service. I never stopped loving her.

Poem About Missing My High School Sweetheart

in Hurting Poems

As I sit and ponder the day away.
I remember the young love I gave away.
I searched for a love like I left behind,
Too young to realize she was one of a kind.

As I sit and ponder the day away.
I remember the young love I gave away.
I searched for a love like I left behind,
Too young to realize she was one of a kind.

Like a ship in the night,
She sailed away.
The hurt I felt
I still feel today.

For years I walked along a lonely shore,
Dreaming of the eyes I'll see no more.
The love I felt, I still feel today
For the love of my life that I gave away.

I Shouldn't Have Fallen In Love With You Poem

in Goodbye Love Poems

I'm sorry that I hurt you
And that I lied.
I'm sorry I can't be the one you want to hold at night.
I'm sorry that we argue

I'm sorry that I hurt you
And that I lied.
I'm sorry I can't be the one you want to hold at night.
I'm sorry that we argue
And fight.
I'm sorry that I fell in love with you;
I knew it wasn't right.
I sit here and know I'll be all right,
But I can't help but think of you
On these long sleepless nights.

Missing You
- By Jaira N. Biel
- Published by Family Friend Poems June 2016 with permission of the Author.
Hi, I was a teenager in love when I wrote this. I wrote a lot of poems. It helped get that emotion out. Not everyone we fall in love with is meant to stay. I have 2 kids and a loving boyfriend. I wouldn't change a thing. I'm very blessed, thank the Lord. But the first time I fell in love is always deep within.

Poem About The One Who Got Away

in I Miss You Poems

Missing you is like a day without light
or a rose without petals.

Every time I think of you

Missing you is like a day without light
or a rose without petals.

Every time I think of you
My days grow shorter,
My heart gets weaker,
and my love grows stronger.

I had a dream that everything was perfect,
But then I realized nothing is the same.

Missing you is like a day without light
or a rose without petals.

In The Shadows
- By Holly A. Blackwell
- Published by Family Friend Poems January 2016 with permission of the Author.
I met a boy a while back, and I fell in love with him. He left university and we stayed in contact, but then he suddenly cut me off and made me feel worthless. The hardest part of all this is that, although it was hard to move on from him, when I was moving on, he returns and I'm back to loving him, even though he doesn't care. I wanted to write this for me, to express my feelings and help the healing process.

Poem About Being Left In The Shadows

in Heartbreak Poems

You left me in the shadows, alone in the dark.
I was left crying and upset the day you broke my heart.
I tried to move on and meet someone new,
But when I was in their arms, I wished it was you.

You left me in the shadows, alone in the dark.
I was left crying and upset the day you broke my heart.
I tried to move on and meet someone new,
But when I was in their arms, I wished it was you.
I tried and tried to push my feelings aside,
But my feelings for you I couldn't hide.
Time passed, and I changed and grew.
I matured and moved on from the person you knew.
I started to pick myself up, I saw the light,
Until I saw you that Saturday night.
For you played with heart like you did before,
Made me feel like we could be more,
But you left my life, like you did before.
No cares in the world when you walked through that door,
So now I'm in the shadows, alone in the dark,
Now crying and upset as you've broken my heart.

The Pain Of Goodbye
- By Madeline Matterson
- Published by Family Friend Poems October 2015 with permission of the Author.
So many times I've had to say goodbye, and I know from experience that the person may be gone, but the pain of goodbye stays.

Poem About The Goodbye That Hurts Too Much To Say

in Goodbye Love Poems

I could fill the oceans with the tears I've cried
Or cover the entire earth with blankets of failed tries.
Countless times what I thought was truth became a lie.
Everything is falling apart, and I'm sick of asking why.

I could fill the oceans with the tears I've cried
Or cover the entire earth with blankets of failed tries.
Countless times what I thought was truth became a lie.
Everything is falling apart, and I'm sick of asking why.
It gets so bad, to the point where I just want to die,
But all of this is nothing compared to the pain of goodbye.
What's the point of believing if you could never fly?
I'm a bird with clipped wings, a well that has run dry,
I'm an undone knot with ends too loose to tie,
But still, nothing compares to the endless pain of goodbye.

The Person Behind Those Beautiful Brown Eyes
- By Ellie Nazza
- Published by Family Friend Poems September 2015 with permission of the Author.
This is my poem about being betrayed by the one I loved and trusted so much; it made me suicidal and depressed.

in Betrayal Poems

I trusted you,
when you told me it wasn't true.
I didn't know that behind those beautiful brown eyes
was a person capable of telling all these lies.

I trusted you,
when you told me it wasn't true.
I didn't know that behind those beautiful brown eyes
was a person capable of telling all these lies.

Those beautiful brown eyes soon turned to Satan's red,
as I realized you were fake one night as I lay in bed.

The person behind those beautiful brown eyes
made me suicidal with all the lies they told,
leaving my heart beaten and cold.

The person behind those beautiful brown eyes
left without a sound,
leaving me lost, waiting to be found.

Poem About Loss Of Girlfriend

I wish this world of darkness would come to an end.

She's gone, and my world is dark and grey.

What's the point of living if she's gone?
There is no sun, there is no dawn
In my endless world of darkness...

Poem About Someone Who Seeks True Love

in Hurting Poems

Just saying your name makes me realize
how much meaning you add to my life.
I watch your actions every day
and long to hold and kiss you when I'm awake,

Just saying your name makes me realize
how much meaning you add to my life.
I watch your actions every day
and long to hold and kiss you when I'm awake,
but reality dawns a rainy day,
a world of fantasy and dismay.

In my dreams I make you mine.
I hold you 'til the end of time,
but when I awake to find that you're not there,
my world is full of sorrow and despair,
and reality, like a rushing wind, destroys my hope,
my everything.

When We
- By Dana Schwartz
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2013 with permission of the Author.
This is written from experiencing a marriage and several relationships with a "bad boy." My home girl and I have spent years watching, waiting, and standing behind our ol' men who have lied, cheated, abused, been locked up, and taken us for granted. It seems like an endless cycle until we either win, lose, give up, or die.

Poem About Giving Up On Someone You Love

in Hurting Poems

When all we hear are the empty promises and lies
That leave behind broken hearts and shattered lives,
When trust is gone and hope is lost,
What are we fighting for and who really pays the cost?

When all we hear are the empty promises and lies
That leave behind broken hearts and shattered lives,
When trust is gone and hope is lost,

Why do we believe you, why do we keep giving in?
When we finally realize we made a mistake,
It's too late, we've sealed our fate.

Heart Broken By A Cheating Boyfriend

This poem is about learning the meaning of love through good-bye. Sometimes you have to face good-bye because it is what is best for the one you truly love.

Love's Journey: Poem Finding Meaning In Letting Go

in Goodbye Love Poems

How can I let go of you, the one who holds my heart?
We loved being together; now we cry as we're apart.
I turn and look one last time, as I slowly walk away.
Holding out your hands, you quietly asked me to stay.

How can I let go of you, the one who holds my heart?
We loved being together; now we cry as we're apart.
I turn and look one last time, as I slowly walk away.
Holding out your hands, you quietly asked me to stay.
I gently touch your hands, as I whisper, "I must go,
You're forever in my heart, I hope you'll always know."
As we kiss one last time, it seems I'm lost in a dream,
For our good-bye has shown me what love can mean.

Someday your life will turn upside down like mine did when you broke my heart.
Someday you'll have someone hurt you like you hurt me.
Someday you'll realize how lonely life can be.
Someday you can sit down and think how much I meant to you
When you meant the world to me.
Someday you'll know how I really felt.
Someday you'll try to come back to me like I tried with you,
But someday you'll love me when I won't love you.
