Premium Member To the Poet Who Broke My Heart
Yes, he broke my heart, but not the usual way
With tender words, he made my poor heart sway
Each chamber beamed with his adoring smile
That chased the demons, made my life worth while

He broke my heart….

My heart was callous, filled with dirt and grime
Its walls all...

Premium Member The Necklace Broke
The necklace broke; all the little pieces
went scattering across the kitchen floor.
Pretty beads were rolling into creases
of a bright rug that lay before the door.

In order to retrieve the beads, she tried
to kneel to grasp the remnants of her prize.
Some minutes passed. The girl broke...

Premium Member So She Broke Your Heart
So she broke your heart and bled you
left you to drown in dark waters... 
melancholia has kept you entombed 
so long within its frozen grasp 

So she broke your heart and bled you
left you lost in a forest of disenchantment…
stripped your soul like the northern...

Premium Member To the Poet Who Broke My Heart Dw
We were ‘married’ on poetry soup
I kept my hubby right in the loop
I still rue the day
That you went away
I need to dry my tears and regroup


Loved your humour right from the start
I miss you with all of my heart
Want you to come back
Get you...

Premium Member You Broke My Heart Not Hardly
You thought, you broke my heart when you walked out
Well old friend, have I got some news for you?
It stung a bit, of that there is no doubt
But honey, I was anything but blue

The day you left, I bought a Cadillac
I bought myself some diamonds...

Premium Member The Night Grandma Broke Wind
Now legends tell in History 
    of events that shook the world.
But nothing compares to the show we had 
    that caused my toes to curl.
The story grows each passing year 
    though some try to...

Premium Member You Broke My Heart
I wrote the perfect poem, and I double-checked each line
The imagery was stunning, the picture painted was divine

My face broke into a smile with the glowing comments I received
But when I saw the ‘winner’s list’ I found my eyes were deceived

There was a massive void...

If it's broke don't fix it
Devoted to imperfections like rituals ~ 
they make my tiny hook break unusual....

My Friend Is Lost, My Heart Is Broke
in a room I lay with you invading my thoughts
I cant seem to get you out of my head
I know I should let go and move forward
But It eats me to think I lost my only friend.

I cant bring myself to cry
nor do I know...

Premium Member Oak Soak Coke Folk Cloak Smoke Broke Bloke
A wizened boy who lived at seventy-two Oak
Relaxed in his tub with a lemon salt soak
Ate a curly pretzel, downed a harsh throat coke
An honest child who sprang from truthful folk

Dressed himself in a red and yellow super hero cloak
Flew around New York City watching...

You Broke Me
You broke it
You broke it
You tore it right apart
You made me
Finally believe
That we'd never be apart

I cant stand
How you can just
Look at me th way you do
I cant stand
How you can just
Make me feel the way you do
Then turn away
Let me feel that I am...

Provoke Joke That We Were Broke
Provoke Joke That We Were Broke

others did provoke
and have become a big joke
they would end up broke

hard times in making
each breath we have been taking
while hearts are breaking

how bad we all feel
did discover dirty deal
poor so had to steel

God had told us so
with support spirit...

Premium Member What If You Broke Every Law of Physics
I closed my eyes to break all the laws,
All the laws of physics and natural philosophy. 
I wanted to travel faster than light, 
Go back hundreds of years, and do it with no technology.
I closed my eyes and talked gravity with Newton,
Talked about spectrums, inertia,...

The Dawn Broke Like a Heart
The dawn broke like a heart,
In shades of violet deep as violence
That bled into the night...

The sun rose like a love affair,
Sky scarlet with a jealous blush
As the first light burned like lust...

The day came like a nightmare,
Drowning in a blue deeper
Than you've ever seen......

Another One Shuts Down - Corona Virus Edition
Another One Shuts Down (Corona virus version)

Gates and boards and reels of wire
Garbage by the gates
Driveway overgrown with grass
The factory is a state

Security checks once an hour
To make sure all's still locked
Another business shut it's door
the economy was rocked

Another workplace bites the dust
Another one shuts...
