A Heart Breaks, It Does Not Bend

"Forever and ever" has been found to be much shorter than said. As the love you once gave was recovered as dead. And springs come and go as we are taught. In the same that I continued loving and he did not. And with them away he will go, but she stays here. Clutching at the things that she alone still holds dear. "Immature, silly thoughts" are what she contains. And now she knows he'll never be the same. So move on, move up, go forth she mutters. But it's hard to believe that now anyone could want her. "It's just your first heart break, there will be many more." And it's a shame to know I'll continue letting my heart be torn. I will be mended by me and me alone. Even when my mind wanders, I will not let my heart be overthrown. Words are sharp, and actions are the knife. But things will get better and she will move on with her life.
