Heartbreak


I’m all alone,
Here without you.
I wait by the phone,
Unsure of what else to do.
When you’re young,
A broken heart is never easy.
The words you said stung,
Going on without you makes me uneasy.
Everytime you go,
My heart breaks a little more.
My smile is just for show,
The sorrow in my heart begins to pour.
The road I’m on
Is not the best for me.
But you’re gone
And it’s time for me to flee.
It’s not my time for love,
This I believe.
But I wish on the stars above
That I am able to grieve.
Our love is done.
So, to a place of peace
I will run,
In hopes my heartbreak will cease.

** The prompt for today's NaPoWriMo was to take the first 5 random song titles on a playlist and use them in a poem. I used my 3 Doors Down playlist and used the first 5 random songs: Everytime You Go, The Road I'm On, It's Not My Time, When You're Young, and Here Without You. **

My Wish for You


My wish for you
Is to follow your dreams.
My wish for you
Is to be successful in all you do.
My wish for you
Is to find your one true love.
My wish for you
is to always strive for the best.
My wish for you
Is to be above the rest.
My wish for you
Is to be so much better than me
My wish for you
Is to be true to yourself.

My Home Sweet Home

I always wanted a place to call home,
A place where I would belong.
I searched all my life
For this special place.
I went from state to state,
Thinking it was too late.
I found my home,
The place where I belong.
Louisiana, my home sweet home.
