Breakup of a Perfect Heart

by Samantha   Feb 22, 2006


You told me, yesterday
That I would be okay
But I don't believe
Those lies you say.
You watched me fold
Right before your time
Still you told me
That I would be fine.

The sky always falls
On the ones that call
To the people in the house
That holds all the dolls.
And fragile it is
The thread that I hold
For the life I live
And I'm not so old.

Blame it all on
The days that passed
But you always knew
That it wouldn't last
And I'm sorry now
For leaving you this way
But this is something
That I have to say.

I feel guilt, I feel pain
I don't feel the same
As I once did,
The day you came.
I know it's not fair
And I know it's not right
But this is something
I don't want to fight.

Deliver us from
The wrongs that will come
Let us be, let us be,
Am I the only one?
The world still spins
The radio still plays my song
And I can only think
We should move along.

Blame it all on
The days that passed
But you always knew
That it wouldn't last
And I'm sorry now
For leaving you this way
But now there's not
Any thing to say.

    "You told me, yesterday"
    [Take out the comma. It ruins the flow]

    This was a pretty good poem. I really enjoyed the rhyme scheme in this one. I thought it was brilliant. The verses were well structured, and the words were great. I also liked the title of this one.

    A lot of people find it hard to get over someone after a break-up, and it usually results in frustration and depression. This is a great way to get over someone that broke your heart. Get angry at them, and write a poem about it. Lol, well that's how I did it. Then eventually time took it's toll and I calmed down, and everything was ok. So good luck with that!.. Great poem.

    You have some extremely creative titles, and this poem though narrative in a way I think, had such a good rhyme scheme and sorrow mixed into it. It kept my attention the whole way through.

    This was a good poem. I enjoyed the form of it, and the flow was pretty nice. Though, I would love to know more about the meaning of this poem. I feel like I am only being told one half of a story when I read this poem.
