He said he'd give me the moon
One romantic afternoon
So I waited eagerly
For the moon to come to me
He gave the moon on bent knee
As it was made of paper
He received a heart breaker.
There's no stoping the feline sound
When El Guapo's around
He's the Joe George of Cedar Grove
The women flock in droves
To see their future
To see way cool junior
Mujer te vuelve de ojos grandes
De hermosos ojos azules
Even have a taco with El Guapo
Or a little love under the poncho
El Guapo is Kimosabe
To all the girls of Merle and Willie
There's no mistaking this heart breaker
The clay image of his Maker
(fact)
I am a heart breaker
That will break your heart into a million pieces.
Like you try to break mines into only ten.
I do not she'd tears, only my son makes me cry.
I do not miss you. For only my son I miss when he's not around.
I do not love you, you already know why.
For I never trust you, for you were a fake I felt it from your vibe.
I know you notice I'm not like other girls that would be desperate over you.
For you are not the last men on earth.there is always a better
You can't try to make me jealous, for I already had you.
You did not please me well, for you though it was about you.
We never spend time together as a couple, for I was never around so our break up was easy to get over you.
When I look at my son I do not see you.for the image of you faded from him as soon he turned 1yrs old.
I love him like crazy, and it's not because of you.
I love my son, for to me that was the first time the spirit heard my prayers.
Years and years since this lanternless heart lost flame;
The sun sits atop me, so I'm walking down this barren road,
Potholes are fresh, memories the red of wool on a surgery bed
And my shadow is but a nimbus without a will of his on...
Bound to the ways of his restless master only to die at dusk.
Promises are castles of glass and now her hopes know a thousand cuts;
The soreness of a woman whose mash-mellow heart commits unto love
Is the anguish of a general whose limbs are lost to the war---
And every tear is a salty prayer to heaven.
I'm a heartbreaker, I bring pain with me and I've broken again,
But today the heart is at guilt, there is no running,
No hiding only walking of atonement of seeking the sugar
of a bosom whose dough rose from a lozi oven.
-- Maybe love like life should end in flames of a crematorium --
Where there is no peace, where eleven bedrooms of white silk are lightless docks,
The heart is a haunted mansion, there never can be sleep.

Between fingers, the
red sips on. A mash mellow
heart is squashed.
I bring pain with me, I break
hearts. I have broken again.

two years you've broke my heart
and scattered the pieces over the grave you've dug for me.
But this time,
you danced with other girls,
getting ready to shatter their hearts too.
My past a mixed brew grilled by time
scarred by an ardor with an expiry date
curdling bone liver heart
dry as refrigerated omellete
a breakfast for one, and later
tea stale in stab of youtube replays
because we are bleeding, leaving
mocked by reality which once glued
our hours together, and now a story
absolutely pulp fiction, hard boiled
to a numb indifference, although
I miss those rugged jeans
scratching gym- stroked thighs
as we fight again again about
the difference between and time and love
while our room screams of
my heartbreaking chains released...at last

Nicola Bryne’s You Broke My Heart Contest
The sound
of shattering glass
is eccentric,
almost as amazing as
shattering your heart.
See how little time it takes
To hate the one you love
The one of all, I cared so much
Tin and thick yet to come
Storm and wing still afar
Quick in time it fades away
Hit and run
Never pays
Good to know who you are
Bye-bye love and come no more.
Vagary describes my affection
Illicit moves draw me to attention
Venus reminds me i am making an err
Infatuation tells me not to fear
Argus seems to watch over every step
Noxious intentions remain my only rep.
There was once a time when you told me
I promise I love you forever
Love is blind and so was I
but now i see who you really are
I promise to love you forever
you said so much, and i thought it meant something
but now i see who you really are
she told me how she felt but, but I didn't listen
you said so much, I thought it meant something
All because the way you said it
she told me how she really felt but I didn't listen
I know what to do from now on
all because the way you said it
I fell deeper and deeper
I know what to do from now on
So next time you see me "blame my dead body on your words"
By: Stormi Skaggs
I give my heart to you my feelings was true.
baby no matter what I would have die for you.
Make your pain mine walk a mile in your shoes.
Night after night I took your mental abuse.
Heart stayed loyal even though my mind saw the clues.
I taught that your love will last forever my eternal tattoo.
Now I am screaming f*** you I am on a higher platitude.
But the pain that you put me through can never be undue.
damn my heart is broken in two what am I suppose to do.
When every night all I do is think about you.
Each night my heart feel pain yeah deja vu.
Now I stand tall because there is no more me and you.
So stop your begging because your tricks I see through.
Snowflakes turn to rain
As spring exhales with warm breath
Melting winter's heart
i feel your warmth in my heart
i only feel warm when you are close though
right now your no where to be seen
are you near by? or is this something else?
there is no mistaking this feeling
heart breaking, my heart is
i wish you were in my arms
thats how close i want you to be
not just passing by
in my tear stained dreams
