I never thought

I never thought, that one day my heart would fall.
Your hands would let go.
Your eyes would look away.
Your mind would clear.
My heart would shatter.
I never wanted to believe that maybe you caused my pain.
crying every night because I loved you and you never noticed how much.
I gave myself to you, and you pushed me away when you got what you wanted.
When you saw something new.
Like a child with a new toy, i was the old toy, left to collect dust.
But now, i no longer need you.
I can breath again.
My pieces picked up again.
Please, this once I want something real.
I hope that your the one for me.

A very painful message. But one that most can relate to. Heartbreak is inevitable, but it truly destroys us in every way possible. I can relate. It's so difficult to move on and to trust again, but your poem explores the concept of hope and rebuilding oneself. A happy ending for an otherwise somber poem. Beautiful.
