Breakup*

by Andrea   Aug 5, 2009


This poem is very unique and interesting in the way it is structured. Each line is a different sentence pattern. It was actually an English assignment but I was going through a breakup at the time soo this is the story I created...

He felt he was incommodius, therefore, decided we should take a break.

It seemed like it would never be over, but the leaves have fallen like the month of October.

In the end, although it seemed like we were meant to be, and he said he would never break my heart, he did more, he tore it apart.

He used to be mine but he forgot; he forgot that I was the one who gave him a shot.

Sorrow and empty my soul is.

I weep and cry and moan and sigh.

His kiss was passionate; his touch was gentle.

He used to run his fingers through my hair; he used to replace happiness with my despair; he used to wrap me in his arms, he used to have me deceived by his charm.

But it was he who made me groan, one day he'll be all alone, and wish it was I talking to him on the phone.

He was my world, but I will move on. I was his girl, but I will move on, I loved him to the sky but I will move on... and soon I will fly when I have moved on.
