Movingon Poems


Dear L

Dear L,

It’s nice to hear from you,
I like knowing what’s going on in your life,
Even if we don’t really talk about a lot.

I like hearing about how you and your partner are doing,
I like hearing that you’re happy.
 
It’s nice to know you’ve found your person,
	I used to wish I could go back and change

First Heartbreak

I remember the moment,
When my heart shattered,
Into a million pieces.

The pain was unbearable,
I cried until my tears ran dry,
Feeling lost and alone,
Wondering how I would ever,
Move on from this heartbreak.

But slowly, as time went on,
That dagger to the heart,
Released itself from me.

And your face was no longer sharp in my mind,
And our time together blurred.
I’m

Peace and understanding
In releasing it all
Before putting things to an end.
We seek one final goodbye,

So we may reach closure.
Sometimes, we

Open my eyes

A thousand poems
A million quotes
But none of it
Was enough
To show me the truth.

Only I could
Open my own eyes.

Life

I have seen people so kind...
And their stories rewind...
It is hard to remind...
The thoughts that unwind...

Strangers turning warmer...
Past becoming dormer...
Every day goes faster...
Making me a master...

Feelings unsaid...
Words unheard...
I strive into the unknown...
Turning the tables all alone...

What is life...
Other than a piece of our mind...
One not to strife...
Let it go and be kind!!!
