Heartbroken

Published by Family Friend Poems January 2014 with permission of the Author.

When I hold his hand, I become invincible.
Nothing could ever go wrong.
When I hear his voice, it makes my day.
His voice is a beautiful song.

When I look at him, my legs turn to jelly
His eyes sparkle like stars.
When I kiss him, you can feel the love
From as far away as Mars.

You protected me, you held me,
From the day that we did meet.
When you're around, my heart thumps
A fast and loving beat.

But the love I thought would never end
Vanished into the night.
The love I thought we'd always share
Had taken away my sight.

I knew that you loved me, but you
Loved another much more.
You simply used me as a stepping stone,
Left me crumpled on the floor.

I sleep no more. I lie awake,
My pillow stained with tears.
My heart has broken into two
And left me with nothing but fears.

I tell myself, "I don't need you,"
But I know it's a lie.
Because, if I'm without you, then
I will surely die.

By Jess Austin, aged 12
