I cry when he left me and I don't know why. He left me because he didn't feel a connection. I cried for days but showed a smile on my face. I don't want to let him know I'm weak, I can't let anyone know. I don't want him yet I miss him. I never thought that anyone has gone through a bad break up as bad as mine but I guess not. I shouldn't cry over him, yet I still do, I like someone else now but still, for some reason I can't move on. My crush has also been so hurt badly that he doesn't want to date.
When my ex broke up with me, and said he didn't feel a connection I felt like I wasn't enough as a girlfriend, or even a person. I thought my life was great at the time, I was in a play, I won a basketball championship, I WAS WITH HIM. But I guess that didn't matter. My life fell apart. My grade dropped and I hated love, most of all myself, but I'm SORTA doing better now. We all move on at some point but now's not my time, I guess.

I needed this. Thank you. I read this when I cry at night, when I think about my ex who I shouldn't cry about, so thank you.
I can relate so much to this poem...Aiden my first love said he couldn't live without me and three months later he dumps me...."I'm sorry to say this but I think we should break up because i kind of lost feelings. it's not you, it's me. I don't want you to be with someone who can't love you the way you deserve. I hope we can still be friends.
go find someone better, don't stress over this. goodbye, meladee." just the first sentence had me in tears made me think that he was here for me no matter what, made me think he loved me, made me waste my time for what just for him to say goodbye
I am really struggling with the loss of my beautiful mum who passed last Thursday, she was diagnosed with a high grade glioma only 6 weeks ago. I do not know how I'm going to do the rest of my life without her . She loved each and everyone of her massive family, 5 children, 15 grandchildren and 35 great grandchildren, she has left such a legacy and will never be forgotten
Simply put, it's a wayfarer poised in the souls' momentary hush of contemplation..of stillness, beauty, such as is needed to slake the thirst of a weary heart..that needs "push on", but feels drawn to linger..yet a little longer.

Mother's Day
This memorable poem was a favorite that I learned by heart and recited for my lovely mother many times. She told me it was the best gift I ever gave her! We enjoyed gardening together, planting a host of daffodils, every fall. Although my mother died a few years ago, her spirit dances with the daffodils forever.
Your Poem brought tears to my eyes. Not of sorrow, rather knowing why Mothers were put here in the first place. And a true connection between one heart and another. Just as it was meant to be. You captured all of this in your short poem. I'm grateful to Have had the privilege to read it. Thank-you
Wow! What a deep, sad and fascinating poem. Truly marvelous!
Today the teacher asked us to choose a poem to perform at the closing session of our Theater Reader class. I was really impressed by the title and the meaning behind it. Interestingly, it perfectly matched what my best friend shared with me today.
I long to keep moving forward and throwing myself into life, but I know I'm exhausted. I need to learn how to love myself again. Thank you to the author for such a beautiful title: Love After Love.
Exquisite and elegant piece of carefully woven words!
