  1. 21. Truth Hurts More Than Your Lie

    This poem I wrote when I was feeling really sad and when I was really confused.

    The truth you tell me hurts more than your lie
    Once I learned it, I started to cry
    Every time I thought of you
    I remembered what I thought was true

    Sometimes the truth hurts more than a bite, doesn't it? Why did you cheat on me when I loved you so much?

    I met someone, and as the years passed me by, I fell in love. As every couple does, we experienced complications, which led him to seek happiness with someone else. The love I've had for him, which I'll always have for him. is the inspiration for this very poem.

    I remember the good things we used to share,
    The happiness we endured, the deep love and care.

    I like the poem. I learned as a young adult that I couldn't make anyone do anything, especially love me. And I also figured out it was not in me to be with someone who didn't want to be with...

  5. 23. Fishbowl

    I wrote this poem on May 8th, after reflecting on the fact that 3 months ago I was in a psych ward after wanting to kill myself. Leading up to that point, I was in a very toxic relationship that got very blown up, fast. I wrote this in hopes that people going through this could relate and not feel alone.

    I was drowning in the sea.
    You took one look then suffocated me.
    Bubbles came in through my mouth as I screamed.
    They exited my nose when I tried to breathe.

  6. 24. Final Moments

    Have you ever had a final moment with someone that you wish you could change?

    It wrecks me, that last moment
    that played out so wrong.
    Our hopeless eyes locked
    just a few seconds too long.

    Short but powerful. My favorite kind. This poem shows what can happen when two people who can't be together (for whatever reason) don't want to be apart.

  7. 25. Lies

    I only write poems when I'm sad or happy. I am 16 years old, and I write poems on what I feel. I live in a small town. I have had a guy cheat on me telling me that he was not like other guys, but then I found him with another girl. It hurt me, but now I found another guy.

    All those promise are lies.
    I thought you said you weren't like other guys.
    I gave you my heart,
    And you broke it apart.

  9. 27. Forget Forgiving!

    Forgiveness is not an option for this girl. The pain is so fresh you can feel it.

    You say it doesn't matter.
    It's all in the past.
    You never see my pain.
    It's behind a mask.

  10. 28. He Is Hurting Too

    Sometimes when a guy and a girl break up, most of the concern goes toward the girl. Everyone sees that she is in pain and she's hurt. The purpose of this poem is to point out that everyone in the relationship has been affected. The guy hurts, too. He wants people to see that he is drowning while everyone is throwing her a life rope.

    He's tired of the pain.
    He's tired of every lie.
    He's tired of the countless nights
    When all he does is cry.

    This poem makes an important point. Often we think in a breakup there's only one hurt heart, but in reality, both people could be hurting. But that might mean they should not have ended it.

    You change moods like seasons change weather

  13. 31. To The Unforgettable

    I was deeply in love with a guy I was with, and one day I woke up to him dumping me. It was unexpected and was by far the most painful breakup I've experienced. He didn't give me a genuine reason why and just said it was for the best, so I've been trying to make sense of it all.

    I know we'll never be the same.
    Behind my love,
    I'm filled with shame.

  14. 32. Price Paid

    This is about my first true love. Love really does hurt, so girls, I hope you find your true love and stay with them for as long as you can.

    When we broke up, man I went crazy,
    confused, sad, and sometimes even lazy.
    I listened to someone who was supposedly my friend,
    so I made our relationship come to an end.
