Broken Heart Poems

Poetry can help us begin the road to recovery...

The pen is mightier than the sword. ~ Edward Bulwer-Lytton

Take away the sword - Hearts can be saved without it!

I have had my heart broken more times than I care to count. I’ve been rejected after the first date never to be called again (even though I thought it went swimmingly!); and I have fallen in love only to find out the “man in my life” did not feel the same. It even hurts when you mutually know that it isn’t going to work out. For being so young (to me anyway) it still amazes me how many times I have felt heartbreak. Of course I have also broken a few hearts of my own, although, I am by no means proud of this fact! But, hey we live and learn.

In all of my experiences, no matter how bad they were or how long it took my heart to heal, I must say at least I have written some pretty great sad love poems (if I do say so myself), of course, I’ll let you be the judge. At this point in time, I have written more poems of my heart breaking than I have that of love poems (go figure).

Hopefully something I have written may help you reach a different perspective about what ever it is that you are currently experiencing or help you through a difficult time just knowing someone else has been there. Even if your heart is not breaking at the moment, you can simply enjoy the read!

"I'm so grateful that you helped me put so many things in perspective... Thanks for being you, Eda! You really made such a difference to me when I was stressed and conflicted in basket case mode.

"Hey, I can't thank you enough. I certainly didn't expect such a heartfelt response, and I sincerely hope what you said is right... Thank you so, so much." ~ Hannah

"Thank you so much for the advice. I have much to think about and I’m not so blind anymore. I think I’m going to take my time to heal… but thank you so much. It was very helpful and very insightful. From now on I’ll be sure to ask you my questions on love. Thank you." ~ TJ

"Just wanted to thank you for the advice. More and more I'm starting to realize maybe she is not "the one" and being with someone just because you have good rapport may not be a good foundation to build a relationship on..." ~ Jason
