A poem I wrote when my heart was broken.
I’ve given him my heart
But now it feels we’ve drawn apart
He’s tied a string around it, tight
It’s now a yo-yo, makes me cry at night
He likes me now, he doesn’t then
I think I’ve started to hate men
When the yo-yo’s in his hands
I feel so special, once it lands
But when he  drops it to the ground
Stains from tears on my pillow found
Go with the flow, I try to do
But without him, my life feels through
I think that I should feel hate
But still I think “tomorrow” and so I wait
I wait for tomorrow, but it never comes
My heartbeat thumping like out of control drums
I go to sleep, my face wet with tears
And my dreams keep replaying all of my fears
The petals fall, “He loves me, he loves me not”
And it feels like he forgot
Was all so sudden, when he stopped
Then the yo-yo fiercely dropped
I don’t know why, I only know
If he loves me, then he should shoe
He should hold my hand, give me a smile
If I were away, he’d walk the mile
But still I’m waiting, a helpless girl
Who needs back her heart in the upward twirl
Please, give it back, or take good care
Or tell me how you really feel, if you dare
Stop, don’t lead me along
Just untie my heart, and I’ll move on
I Can’t forget you, can’t continue
Until I know that you’ll be true
I love you, Adam, I want you to know
But for two months, I’ve felt so low.
