When I’m Heartbroken

When I’m Heartbroken

When I’m heartbroken, I can think of you

It’s the only way you’re of any use

I block you out, most of the time

Trying to keep you off of my mind

But when the pain is caused by another

Thoughts always drift to that first true lover

This pain, I can handle

It’s what I’m comfortable with

The pleasure I remember

Is what I truly miss

So when I’m heartbroken

I can think of you

You know it’s the only time

You’re of any use

One response to “When I’m Heartbroken”


  1. […] the pain of knowing you will be alone forever because there’s no one out there for you. (See: this poem I wrote) […]
