I was always taught From when a young boy To respect my toys So I'd always enjoy And then they'll last For a time so long And stay with me Where they belong But occasionally One of them might break And possibly From my own mistake So then I was taught To use my hands So I could repair it To again be grand It made me happy And I would always shine When I fixed it I was on cloud nine This went on Through all the years Whenever something broke There were no more tears I was popular Among all my friends As they always asked me To fix and mend And there was never Something I couldn't fix I thought I was smart And knew all the tricks I was so proud My future looking clear And I had big dreams To become an engineer Although I didn't plan it Nor did I think much of But in my late teens I was destined to fall in love She was so beautiful My heart she would ignite We both came to a pause It was love at first sight That summer so romantic Then both of us would grieve I was going interstate For Uni I would leave We started writing letters Pretty much everyday But things got so busy It wasn't always this way Then one day it stopped No longer she would write Though I didn't really worry I thought it would be alright I became too confident And didn't really care Because whatever was broken I thought I could repair I planned to surprise her And turned up at her door But then what I found Was not what I was looking for She was with someone else And said she couldn't wait Our love was doomed to fail When across the interstate It hit me so hard To find our love was fake And it hurt me so much It caused my heart to break I just turned to leave For a first becoming scared As finally now I've found something Which just can't be repaired

Very nice poem, it reminds us how hopeless we feel when our heart gets broken.
