Time Heals A Broken Heart (Yeah, Right.)

by Jenni Marie   Jan 12, 2007


I've tried my hardest to move on
But it seems I just can't let go
Why do I still love you so much
When you clearly love me no more?

It's been such a long time
But I constantly think of you
I have just one wish:
Stop me feeling blue.

I'll always be eternally sorry
For what our love did become
If only I hadn't messed up
If only we hadn't come undone.

I bet you wish you could see the mess I am
I know that it would make you smile
I'm sorry our love turned out to be a waste
When we thought it would be worthwhile.

I remember the date we broke up
I remember the day we got together
I remember when we thought
That our love would last forever.

If only I could let you know
How much I regret the things I did
But I will never be that strong
So I'll keep my emotions hid.

If only I could show you
You still mean the world to me
If only you'd let my heart go
And finally set me free.

I wish we could go back in time
Back to when we first met
I'd do everything differently
And I wouldn't have to fret.

I don't want to feel like this
Can't take this pain anymore
So many days I have spent
Lying bleeding on the floor.

I wish that we were friends
I wish I didn't have a broken heart.
I wish everything was different
Wish I wasn't torn apart.

If only I could prove how sorry I am
There's nothing I wouldn't do
So tell me how to make things right
Baby boy, just give me a clue.

They say time heals all wounds
But I don't think that's true
For if it were then I wouldn't
Still be crying over you.

    Aw this is so sad.. the last stanza was so powerful. I hope that you can get over this and it doesn't comsume you like it can do to other people. Just try and let go of the memories and I think things will get better. The writing was very good the only thing I can critique on is the one line "So I'll keep my emotions hid." I know that you did that to stick with the rhyme scheme but it just doesnt fit and takes away a great deal from the poem. I hope you can figure out a way to fix it, but other than that it was preaty good..
