41. Heartbroken Over Love
- By Katie
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2008
We used to be so in love. How did it come to this?

At first we loved, but not again.
We met at the mall,
and we talked ever since.
We stood starring at each other,

At first we loved, but not again.
We met at the mall,
and we talked ever since.
We stood starring at each other,
I wondered the time.
We'd stand together,
Holding hands as we walk down the street.
I wondered when our lips
Would meet.
My heart is broken.
You seem to ignore the pain I have
when you left me sore.
Our love was strong,
in which now your
heart is blind to see.
Now I feel that your love
has completely forgotten about me.
Well all in all I'm heartbroken
without you by my side.
I wish we could love each other
like we did that one time.

42. Fixing A Broken Heart
- By Blake Auden
- Published by Family Friend Poems January 2021
I can't tell you about healing. But I can tell you about moving forward; about not standing still and hoping the fires behind you don't reach you. Some days there is bravery in just moving your feet, especially when you have no idea where it is you're meant to be going.

I can’t tell you
how to fix
a broken heart,
but I can tell you

I can’t tell you
how to fix
a broken heart,
but I can tell you
the importance
of keeping moving.
I can tell you
that even when
you have no idea
which direction to go,
bravery is putting
one foot in front
of the other
anyway.

I like it. Those of us who have ever been in love or thought we were in love, know what it's like to have our heart broken. But I agree that time moves on. Not all love leads to heartbreak....

43. When I Fell In Love
- By Jeze Sarabia
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2008
Is this love or friendship?

Is This Love Or Friendship?

When I look into your blue eyes
all I see are your thoughts moving inside your head.
I want to say how much I love you and how much I think of you,
but all I get out of me is just looking at you and smiling,

When I look into your blue eyes
all I see are your thoughts moving inside your head.
I want to say how much I love you and how much I think of you,
but all I get out of me is just looking at you and smiling,
but all I want to hear from you is that you like me
and that you feel the same rage of love like I do.
I don't know what I would do if I never met a sweet guy like you.
All the hugs I got from you didn't feel like anything to me
because I wasn't sure if it was a sign of love or friendship.
When I look up to you
you just wave back with the biggest smile you can possibly give me.

44. Restored
- By Kelsey Brock

Time. Time will heal everything, but sometimes you can only be hurt so much until you break. And sometimes that broken heart never mends.

Rhyming Sad Love Poem

One. Two. Five. Ten.
I am counting it over and over again.
Twenty. Fifty. One-hundred and two?
How many times you said you loved me true.

One. Two. Five. Ten.
I am counting it over and over again.
Twenty. Fifty. One-hundred and two?
How many times you said you loved me true.
One thousand, six hundred and five.
How many times you stood there and lied.
Four billion, nine thousand, six hundred and ten
How many chances I gave you over again.
Eleven zillion, six billion, five million, then some
How many feelings you have torn and undone.
But one, just one, poor little heart you destroyed.
Although it was not whole before,
Now it can never be restored.

45. Rebirth
- By Brett W. Jansen
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2018
After my breakup, I fell into a dark place. I pushed away all of my friends and felt abandoned. The only thing that keeps me going is just the hope that someone new may have the patience to save me from this prison I've made for myself.

Dealing With Depression After A Breakup

The rain falls upon the stone.
No longer is it of use,
For a crack has ruined its purpose.
It is now only a tool for abuse.

The rain falls upon the stone.
No longer is it of use,
For a crack has ruined its purpose.
It is now only a tool for abuse.

A careless heart created the crack,
Allowing the rain to increase the ravine,
So now the rock only crumbles,
Creating a depressing scene.

Yet alas, a blossom rises from the shards.
The unforgiving rain drowns the bud,
Causing it to wilt,
Falling back to the mud

Until a careful hand
Led with patience and care
Saves the dying flower
From all its darkness and despair.

46. Hole In My Heart
- By Georgina F.
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2014
I wrote this poem when my now ex-husband cheated on me with a friend I grew up with. We had lost touch for some years and reconnected; she was married also. I regret ever finding her again. They eventually married, and I was left with a broken heart.

Poem About A Broken Heart

There is a hole in my heart; what can I do?
Please, someone help me; I'm in pain too.
I'm hurting so badly, can't shake this pain.
I have this hole in my heart, my love was in vain.

There is a hole in my heart; what can I do?
Please, someone help me; I'm in pain too.
I'm hurting so badly, can't shake this pain.
I have this hole in my heart, my love was in vain.
Countless nights I spent in tears.
Sleepless nights, can't get rid of my fears.
I'm afraid I can't love with this hole in my heart.
I'm afraid I can't love; it's tearing me apart.
I'm afraid I'll never, never feel love so pure.
This hole in my heart, will it ever be cured?
Please, someone, help me to heal this pain.
I have this hole in my heart, so hard to sustain.
What can I do, I ask once more,
With this hole in my heart, not there before?

48. Broken When You Left
- By Caitlin
- Published by Family Friend Poems July 2009
To my ex-boyfriend...

Poem About Being Left For Someone Else

Baby, I guess it was never meant to be.
I miss what we used to be,
but baby, can't you see that I'm dying?
I've spent all of my lonely nights crying,

Baby, I guess it was never meant to be.
I miss what we used to be,
but baby, can't you see that I'm dying?
I've spent all of my lonely nights crying,
making myself believe it's not true
and end up waking in the morning without you.
My heart seems to shatter every time I hear your voice,
reminding me of what we had, and your stupid choice.
I wish I had never made that stupid decision,
the one that changed my life forever.
I wish I could still make you see
how much you meant to me.
It's too late for me to say I love you,
you've already moved on.
I was just an innocent girl looking for love,
you were just a boy looking for a sign,
to go back to what you had before,
and I was what made you realize,
that you needed her more.

49. I Fell In Love With You
- By Kristin
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2015
My boyfriend cheated on me with his ex-girlfriend. I'm still deeply in love with him, but I knew I had to end it. How can you be with someone you just cannot trust anymore?

Poem Missing The Way Things Used To Be

I just wish you would come back to me,
tell me it's gonna be alright,
the way things were supposed to be,
you holding me so tight.

I just wish you would come back to me,
tell me it's gonna be alright,
the way things were supposed to be,
you holding me so tight.

You kiss me on the lips,
and tell me this is love.
Your arms wrapped around,
and for me that's enough.

Tell me that you're sorry,
for all that I've been through,
that I don't deserve this,
I could do much better than you.

But I just stand there,
and I hold my breath.
I know there is no one better,
I will love you until death.

Too bad this is all a dream,
all so unreal.
Baby, it's so hard to explain
the way you made me feel.

50. To Him
- By Becky Powell
- Published by Family Friend Poems July 2009
The cold winds are blowing
The leaves are falling to the ground.
Soon the snow will be falling
And my heart will be crying...

The cold winds are blowing
The leaves are falling to the ground.
Soon the snow will be falling
And my heart will be crying
Because you're not around.

Another year is passing
And still we're apart.
I don't understand, I don't know
But the pain is deep in my soul.
How do I explain this to my heart?

You said you'd be there when I need you.
Where the hell are you now?
In another woman's arms holding her tight?
I can hardly make it through the night
Without crying your name out loud.

Don't you know that not a day goes by
That you don't cross my mind?
It's hard to believe that you still care
When months go by without a word
I must be blind.

Blinded by a love I feel
For a man who will never be mine.
Tell me how to turn it off.
Show me how to kill this love.
Throw the switch so it will die.

I think I'm slowly losing my mind.
How can I forget you?
You're the one true love I've ever known.
The cold seeps into my bones
And my heart is turning blue.

My friends think I'm crazy
For caring so much
That I'd gladly risk everything
To be in your arms once again,
To feel the magic of your touch.

I know you're not Prince Charming
But you're the closest thing I've ever seen.
I long to feel your lips on mine
And once again my "sun" will shine.
I'm sure you know what I mean.

Come back to me, my love!
Show me that you still care.
Warm my heart and my bed.
Clear the fog from my head.
Prove that you'll always be there.

51. Life
- By Kevin Lyth
- Published by Family Friend Poems November 2009
I only really write when I'm moved or touched by someone or something. I wrote this for a friend who was about to tell her husband she wanted a divorce, due to his total lack of interest in her as a woman!

Poem About Being The Woman You Can Be

At times our lives are set to change
Through no fault of our own,
A change you know will break your heart
And break the family home.

At times our lives are set to change
Through no fault of our own,
A change you know will break your heart
And break the family home.

But what is more important?
To live a life in fear,
Or change and live the life you should
With someone you hold dear?

Everyone needs freedom
To live the life they should!
They need to find their inner selves
And make themselves feel good!

If a person can't see what they have
Right before their eyes
When reality hits and the money has gone,
Imagine their surprise!

Some men think they're above themselves
And think of their own self worth
And they never stop to think a while
Of this woman who gave us birth
This caring, giving, loving woman
Who's always stood by his side
And if shown true love and affection
She'd be there till they died

Relationships should blossom
Relationships should grow!
You should never forget those first feelings of love
That deep warm and inner glow
But sadly some don't think like that
And for those you should feel sorrow!
They end up leading lonely lives
Of past regrets and never thinking of tomorrow

Because tomorrow is another day
And thoughts of where you'll venture
Don't think of the hard road that's ahead
Turn it into a new adventure

We all need someone to show us
That we're not just there for the ride
We need to know he feels so proud
To have this beauty by his side
Yes! You have an inner beauty
You're loving, caring and kind!
If an ignorant man just can't see that!
Then yes! Ignorance is blind

Look to the future, look to yourself
Look for a life not stuck on the shelf
Be the woman you want to
Be the woman you can!
Be a woman in love
In love with a man
Who has true love and affection
And shows that he can!

No matter what happens to this jilted bride
Take strength from true friends
You'll have by your side
They are there when you need them
Through all of your pain
You'll laugh and you'll cry!
But they'll keep you sane

One day you'll look back
And laugh amongst friends
And you'll be holding a man
Who you know can depend
On showing true love
He'll never waiver or bend
And he'll see a woman
Who'll be there 'til the end

52. My Empty, Broken Heart
- By Teresa Forbes
- Published by Family Friend Poems October 2009
My empty, broken heart is left in the pouring rain to soak up my tears.

My empty, broken heart is left in the pouring rain to soak up my tears.
I lay all night all by myself
dying
with tears running down my wet face,

My empty, broken heart is left in the pouring rain to soak up my tears.
I lay all night all by myself
dying
with tears running down my wet face,
'cause the person I loved ripped out my heart waiting for me to die.
Dying, bleeding with no one to love
because no one acts as if they care for me.
Each time I try to talk to someone,
they always act as if I don't exist.
Hesitating to talk to the person I loved at one point
kills me more and more each day.

53. Accepting Heartache
- By Tania
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2008
One of those things when someone breaks your heart and you have to accept and move on. It is hard but possible.

Poem About Accepting Reality

I used to know you
I used to care for you
Even though you weren't true
I saw something in you

I used to know you
I used to care for you
Even though you weren't true
I saw something in you
That made me to want to stay.

It was a learning curve
Because your mistakes, your heartache
Gave me a breakthrough
To escape the misery you put me through.

What you did
Made me doubt my beliefs
In something I thought was so great
But even so, I know the hole you dug inside my heart
Is slowly but surely closing up

They say what doesn't kill you makes you strong
I say I know what you did was wrong
When I look at my life I realize
Experience is the best teacher
I found strength in my weakness.

I've done enough crying caused by your deceit and lying
It took me a while, I ain't going to lie
But now that I have accepted and accommodated your deceitfulness
And learned to take a step forward without feeling any weakness

I have my life ahead of me
Even though sometimes it feels like I can't go on
I know accepting what you did and forgiving you
Was what I had to do to make my life right.

- By Anna-Marie
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2008
I wrote this about a guy I thought I was in love with.

Thought I Was In Love

We talked for hours about nothing at all
as the music played on
and the day turned to night.
We walked side by side in endless circles under the light of the moon.

We talked for hours about nothing at all
as the music played on
and the day turned to night.
We walked side by side in endless circles under the light of the moon.
Now you say our time was wasted and my love is pointless.
How can you say such a thing without a hint of pain in your voice
and no tears in your eyes...are you that cold inside?
To you, life is just a game that you think you cannot beat.
And we are all just players you believe you must defeat.

55. Love: Friend Or Foe
- By James Toles
- Published by Family Friend Poems November 2008
This is the path that love takes us on. We all have experienced it.

Poem About The Good And Bad Of Love

Love has hit me once before, has had me flying high
Love has left me down and out, falling right out of the sky.
Love has brought me lots of joy, made my life a thrill
Love has brought me lots of sorrow, left my heart roadkill.

Love has hit me once before, has had me flying high
Love has left me down and out, falling right out of the sky.
Love has brought me lots of joy, made my life a thrill
Love has brought me lots of sorrow, left my heart roadkill.

Love, I ask you, why can't you make up your mind?
If you cannot answer the question, then that is fine.
I think you're unsure of yourself, a lost and confused soul
You warm people up with fire, but then make life so cold.

But I will play your little game, I will be your willing pawn
Let you make a joyful spirit then go and break its bond
But you guide us blindly into a hold we cannot escape
You give to us slowly, but in turn quickly you take.

56. To Whom It May Concern
- By Callum Bruce
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2012
To Whom It May Concern is my first ever attempt at a poem and most likely my last. I didn't write this for others to read, though if you enjoyed it, then that makes me very happy. I wrote this as a way of coming to terms with my loss of a friend deeply close to me. I grew feelings for her over time, and when I finally took a chance on her, I ended up losing it all. As the poem progressed, it was intended to mimic the emotions and reactions I felt at different stages. I hope you all enjoy this poem. Many thanks.

Poem About When Friendship Doesn't Turn To Love

I think today I lost a friend, how did I let it happen?
We laughed and played and joked around, WHY did I let it happen!
clashing sounds of falling pins, and the smell of fresh brewed coffee
all the things of our glory days, that haunt me without folly.

I think today I lost a friend, how did I let it happen?
We laughed and played and joked around, WHY did I let it happen!
clashing sounds of falling pins, and the smell of fresh brewed coffee
all the things of our glory days, that haunt me without folly.

Deep down I knew I loved you, and somewhere you did too.
but somewhere along the line there, I lost sight of you
I know I really shouldn't, but I still blame myself,
for all of the shortcomings we had ever felt.

Someday I know I'll find you, though I know just where you are.
I guess the only thing is, I wish you weren't so far.
I know I shouldn't have told you, I regret it every day,
But I live with my choices, and live my life my way.

I miss you.

I just want your friendship.

I'm sorry.

FINE, IGNORE ME!
See if I care!
You self-indulgent ignorant swine.
I give you my friendship, my life, even my love,
and at my lowest point, when I turn to you,
you forget about me, like your dirty washing.
You know what? I'm not sorry. I'm not sorry I fell in love with you.
I'm not sorry that I took a chance on you.
I'M NOT SORRY

I'm writing you this now because I know this is the end,
The end of a friendship that I thought would never bend.
You are a beautiful person, of that I know is true
But that does not relinquish the crimes that follow you
You lied, you backstabbed, you cheated, YOU'RE FAKE.
But then again that's the risk you take.
This is the end.
This IS goodbye.

57. The Hunter's Call
- By Sherry Hardison
- Published by Family Friend Poems July 2012
I fell in love many years ago with a man who was never faithful. He has moved on many times but still hunts me down every now and then to tell me I was always his best friend. He calls me when he is low and says he still loves me. It is a fleeting moment for him and he disappears without a word as quickly as he appeared. My heart has never healed and moved on. He was the hunter and I was his prey. I sent this poem to him to say he cannot hunt for me again as death came to me by his hands.

In Love With A Unfaithful Man

My heart pounding as I hear his hunter's call.
I follow the trail of crumbs full
of broken promises, lies, and pain,
Knowing he has the power to hurt me

My heart pounding as I hear his hunter's call.
I follow the trail of crumbs full
of broken promises, lies, and pain,
Knowing he has the power to hurt me
over and over again.
Standing before him at his mercy.
Exposed in the light of another day.
Trusting the declaration of his undying
Love for me once more.
I watch in disbelief as he pulls back
into the shadows without one word
Knowing he has taken aim.
I stand silent, weak and trembling
as I listen to the beating of my own heart.
Numb in that split second to the piercing
of his arrow straight through my heart.
I quickly fade into the darkness without a word.
Crawling back into my place of shame.
With every beat of my heart, I bleed.
With every tear from my face, I feel
Cold and so alone.
The life drains from my body with every breath.
In my final moment, I wonder if he will feel remorse
And search for me to bury my remains.

58. I'll Lie To Myself
- By Hilary Wong
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2014
Some people are out to hurt you. You just have to cherish the ones who are there to help you.

Poem About Pain and Heartbreak

There's nothing left of me
Nothing more to take
I'm nothing more than just another story
Just give me a break

There's nothing left of me
Nothing more to take
I'm nothing more than just another story
Just give me a break

I'm nothing anymore
Are you happy?
Does it make you happy
To know that I'll live the rest of my life miserably

Does it make you feel better
To make me feel bad
To make me realize
All we ever had

I'll do anything to forget
The horrid memories
All the time spent
In such misery

I'll lie to myself
I'll lie to everyone else
What is there to lose?
The one closest to me has already said farewell

59. Dear Broken Heart
- By Sarah N. Hilliard
- Published by Family Friend Poems October 2015
I used to write in a journal. When I was hurt to the point I didn't wanna see anyone, I wrote this to some piano parts. I think it's very beautiful

Dear broken heart, why can't you fix me?
And dear broken heart, are you still with me?
And when I lay my head down and
Think of the things that I'll never do,

Dear broken heart, why can't you fix me?
And dear broken heart, are you still with me?
And when I lay my head down and
Think of the things that I'll never do,
Dear broken heart, know I'm thinking of you.
Dear restless past, I remembered you
And the way you make things wrong.
Do you want my tears to fall?
So I'm standing all alone,
All by myself, cold to the bone.
Do you still want me there, just to take the fall?
Dear broken heart, will you want me after all?
Dear desperate soul, are you still searching for the one?
The one who made me what I am,
The one who broke this heart and made me who I am,
Ripped from his hands.
And dear broken heart, this letter is for you.
I hope you get it in time.
And please dear broken heart, promise me you won't cry, cry ,cry.
Please don't cry for me.

60. My Last Love
- By Mtarandfeather
- Published by Family Friend Poems July 2012
I felt a soul mate had been found and she reciprocated. Words were said to me I couldn't ignore and my heart melted for her. I was thoroughly torn apart when a dark selfish side appeared, but I was already in deep and believed in what love could do.
There is also a dark side to love; that which can be all so good can be equally devastating, leaving one jaded after a lifetime of emptiness.

Broken Heart Poem For Him

Her hair of black and eyes of brown,
so very sweet and pretty she was.
From another country way on down,
fascinated by what she says and does.

Her hair of black and eyes of brown,
so very sweet and pretty she was.
From another country way on down,
fascinated by what she says and does.

Years went by and we fell in love
perhaps it was due to circumstance.
We seemed to fit together like a glove
but knew we were taking a chance.

She opened up to me of long pain
'cause she felt comfortable, you see.
She relayed her past and the strain
about a mother, father, brother and me.

She said I was her soul mate found
circumstances brought us together.
We felt love actually knew no bound
flocked together like birds of a feather.

I felt inside that she may be lost
what she needed I could provide.
My heart I felt prepared for the cost
just in the event that we may divide.

Raised without love she never felt
said she knew no other way but use.
These were the cards she was dealt
but still that is certainly no excuse.

It felt real in my heart, that's true
and I also knew it in my head
'Cause of time together as two
and never ever going to bed.

I felt she used me against myself
as I had a soft and open heart.
My love she used put on a shelf
took it down again and tore it apart.

Perhaps it was simply my own fault
but I believed in love and the power.
The wound hurts like filled with salt
any prospects of love again are sour.

I have fallen in love just twice in my life,
when I was young and again much older.
There's been other love and even strife,
my heart has grown wise but now colder.

I know it's sad to say that and I do fret
and feel I may be missing out on such.
Looking back through life with regret
to hope or love any more hurts too much.

We used to be so in love. How did it come to this?

42. Fixing A Broken Heart

﻿I can't tell you about healing. But I can tell you about moving forward; about not standing still and hoping the fires behind you don't reach you. Some days there is bravery in just moving your feet, especially when you have no idea where it is you're meant to be going.

Is this love or friendship?

Time. Time will heal everything, but sometimes you can only be hurt so much until you break. And sometimes that broken heart never mends.

I wrote this poem when my now ex-husband cheated on me with a friend I grew up with. We had lost touch for some years and reconnected; she was married also. I regret ever finding her again. They eventually married, and I was left with a broken heart.

I only really write when I'm moved or touched by someone or something. I wrote this for a friend who was about to tell her husband she wanted a divorce, due to his total lack of interest in her as a woman!

52. My Empty, Broken Heart

My empty, broken heart is left in the pouring rain to soak up my tears.

60. My Last Love

I can't tell you about healing. But I can tell you about moving forward; about not standing still and hoping the fires behind you don't reach you. Some days there is bravery in just moving your feet, especially when you have no idea where it is you're meant to be going.
