A love that failed (Short Love Poem)

A love that failed

A-love-that-failed

Love is something that will happen to all of us.

A feeling, an emotion, a burden sometimes.

You know you're in love when you always feel happy.

You'll always laugh just because someone special is around.

You'll listen to your friends' normal gossiping..

But you won't care.

Because you just can't.

Skipping will become a usual thing for you.

And so will singing aloud.

Happy songs will be all you listen to.

And then he'll notice you.

Because you're always smiling.

Always laughing.

Always there.

And he'll love you for who you are.

Flowers become a weekly gift.

Valentine's day become your favourite holiday.

Kisses will be planted on your lips and not your cheek.

And he'll be the only one you want around you.

But then something doesn't feel right.

You don't see him as much anymore.

Sadness is creeping up on you.

You start to feel emptier and emptier.

The flowers disappear.

Your birthday is all you're excited about.

And kisses won't fall onto your lips.

Then you meet her.

The other you.

And you're pushed out of the picture.

He doesn't seem to care about you now.

He doesn't mind that you're upset.

And he won't wipe your tears away.

So you'll escape from reality.

Your bedroom door will always be locked.

You'll scream into your pillow every night.

Wishing that he'll come back to you.

But you'll start to realise.

It's over.

He's gone.

You have to get away from the thought of him.

It's not easy but you'll try.

You try to surround yourself with friends and work.

Remove the thought of those happy days.

And him.

You prepare yourself for that moment.

The one you've been dreading the most.

When you have to confront your fear.

Seeing her and him holding hands.

Playing happy couples.

Smiling like you once did.

And you'll try to act like you don't care.

You almost convince yourself.

But then those memories will come flooding back.

You're trapped.

But you manage to scare those feelings away.

The little pieces of your heart will come back.

And you'll feel happier and hopeful.

Because you know that there's someone else.

Not just him who broke your heart.

Someone who will always love you.

Someone wanting you.
