Breaking My Heart

by Lyndsay Kalyta   Mar 4, 2007


I thought you were the one
Who I could call my own
You opened me up and I came undone
But now I'm spending my days alone

I knew that I could love you
But now I know, I was already there
My feelings for you are still real and true
And now I hurt because I wasn't aware

You weren't thinking about me that night
As I lied awake with you on my mind
I can't make your feelings re-ignite
Because I wasn't what you were trying to find

When you held me you touched my soul
Your words melted my fears away
But now everything is out of my control
But I'd give anything to make you stay

I promised you one hundred kisses
Which you never allowed me to give
Now I'm left with painful wishes
And a life that I don't want to live

I gave you everything that I could
But you gave it right back to me
If I could bring us together, I would
But I can't seem to make you see

I'll be waiting for forever and a day
Because I'm not sure where else to start
By falling in love with you, I have to say
I am the one breaking my heart

This poem is dedicated to Donald Kehler. He is the guy who I gave my heart to, and for a moment, I held his. Now, he doesn't even act like I exist. I am not taking back anything I said to him, because it was all too true to forget. I blame everything on me. It was my fault nothing's working. Some of you were trying to help me out with this, and now, I'm just letting you all know nothing's working anymore. But thanks for the help..

    One way I have of reading poetry is to read from the bottom line first and go backwards from there. It doesn't work with all poems but I got a great sense of grief and love that are innertwined with each other reading both forward and backward. Its a great deal to be able to express these thoughts and feelings onto paper or type. He should read this and if he has it in him to feel anything he would break down and regret everything that he didnt give or allow to be given. I feel for you, even if you blame yourself or him. The experience is good for helping to move on or maybe even to grow if it possibly could end up working out. Bravo for being able to speak these words of truth from deep within yourself.

    I feel like you in many ways. I wish I could find a way to re-ignite the flame which once existed.
