Breaking up

Their is a time when hearts are broken

I wish you wouldn't have broke mine.

You don't understand how I feel

nobody does

That's why I ask you

Why you left me

You meant the world to me

you took it away

Kyle don't you see

I am head over heels

In love with you

I don't mean what I say When I said I hated you

Think that it is opposite

What I meant to say

Is I love you

kyle in every way

Right now,
You're all I want;
You're all I need.
You're pretty much the air I breathe.

Right now,
I don't think I can let you go;
I don't think I can say goodbye.
I just can't stand to sit and cry.

Right now,
I feel like I'm being torn;
I feel like I can't win this game.
I feel like I'm the one to blame.

So right now,
You're all I want;
You're all I need.
You're pretty much the air I breathe.

your heart gets heavy

you drowned in something unknown

your broken and lost

you lift me up and

put me down, this double sword

is to much for me

Palms sweaty; hands shaking; target in sight
That boy, your boy, is over talking to friends
You ask for a private word then walk away
Hand in hand you go to the secret spot
Together you sit against the wall and no one speaks
Finally you break the tension in the air
I think we should take a break from this
Hopefully he’ll take that well you think
Sounds good, I was thinking the same
His response shocks you so much you turn
To look into his eyes; they show so much
Looking back into your eyes you move forward
Your lips touch before you know what’s going on
So much for the break, but then again,
Was it really what you wanted anyway?

I think we should just be friends
Its not you, it's me
Well actually, it's you
I need to focus on school
I like someone else
It was not meant to be
I'm not in love with you anymore
We're going in different directions
We just don't have chemistry

Can we still be friends?

Breaking Up!!!!!!

By Katherine Massell
Edmunds Elementary School, Grade 4

WALKING TO THE MOVIES

“Hey, Jake”
“Hello, Sarah”
“So were you going to take me to the movies?”
“Oh, um yeah, sure you want to come?”
“Yeah, thanks, that’s why I’m here!”

AT THE MOVIES

“So, what are we watching Jake?”
“Oh, a Bill Nye Video. I love learning about science!”
{Muttering} “You are such a little wimp!”
“What?”
“Nothing… want popcorn?”
“Oh, I brought a tuna sandwich.”
“JAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought we were going to spend a wonderful night together watching horror movies! You are such a little jerk! Why did I ever come here?”
“Well, maybe because you are my girlfriend.”
“Where did you get that idea?”
“Well, that’s what you said before we came here!”

Breaking Up
I cannot hear you
Huh? What is that you just said?
Crackle crackle end

A poem for her

By Ken McFadden
Leland and Gray Union High School, Grade 8

Here without you
My heart's been broken in two
In this endless pit of misery
It’s unbelievable
The way I feel about you
After my heart's been broken in two
I knew you were the one
The moment I saw you
I knew we could make it through
Without a doubt in my mind
Who knew we would climb so high
To the top of the sky
You and I
I never knew you could be so cruel
Those bright blue eyes
Will never look at me
The way they used to.

I looked at you
You looked at me
At that moment
I knew we were meant to be
You took my breath away
But then you turned away
When you come around
I act like a clown
You look at me
Like there’s nothing to see
I look at you with my heart in agony.

In this world I find so divine
I cannot find a place in my mind
To tell you the way I feel about you
But let me tell you
You don’t even have a clue
But that’s OK
Maybe if I look deep enough

Breaking Up

By Katelyn Robertello
Mt. St. Joseph Academy, Grade 9

Breaking up
Is hard to do.
You have to make sure you’re not rude
The person you were dating may not like you after that.
They may be rude and cruel to you.
They may look at you
And talk about you behind your back.
But you know that you’re the one with all the class.
And you know they will be back, asking you out again and
Then you can say no to them.
They will ask why and then you can say
They were mean to you and you don’t want to be with them, OK!

Now I Understand

By Karsen Woods
Westford School, Grade 7

I sometimes wonder why it didn't work
I suppose it just wasn't meant to be
It's quite obvious that you didn't like me for me
You only liked what you could see
And now I understand why it didn't work
It's all because you are just a jerk

Confusing you for a good person

By Ashley Dufresne
Leland and Gray Union High School, Grade 9

There was something strong about you
That made me feel the way that I do
I thought of you as a person that I could always look to
You came into my life at the perfect time
Your smile, your touch, your gaze all of it was too much
It was that in which brightened the little light that I soon thought that I had lost
The way everything was all right when I was with you
I talked and you would listen
I would do the same for you
I never thought of you as more than just a friend
But it confused me whenever you would look at me, I couldn’t help but turn away
Every day my feelings for you would slowly grow
Every day I would learn more about you that I didn’t know
Seemed like you could pick me up whenever I was feeling down
I don’t know when my feelings changed from friends to wanting so much more
But as soon as I felt it the friendship flew out the door.

The Breakup

By Branden Taylor
Mt. St. Joseph Academy, Grade 9

Four words that make your world crash.
You fall to your knees and you know it will end.
You thought this time she was the one.
You spent all the time and emotions you had to make her happy.
You can’t cry because you know that it’s for the best.
All that will happen is you will be alone again.
Your entire world comes crashing down in your head.
All at once you feel a wet face.
As you look to the ground you see a little puddle,
A puddle of tears.
Not trying to cry, you ask a simple word.
With no reply she says she is sorry.
The phone goes blank.
You hang up and go on with your life.
Your life crumbles beneath your feet.
Things happen too fast for you to grasp.
One day a while later you see her.
You stop and say that you once learned to love.
As you walk away you also say you learned that love is fake.
For years to come till the day you died you knew you would love her.

John,

Through Eyes of Love

By Evan Cope
Champlain Valley Union High School, Grade 11

I look through eyes of love
Wondering if you know
If you care
Watching you mock me
Wondering if you mean it
I walk away
And play along
Not to lead on
Not to let you know
But as night comes strong
And I lay in bed
I wonder if you care
I wonder if the hopes I have
Are not just hopes
But reality
If there is a spark
So help me
Cause I’m in the dark
Lend me a hand
Look at me
And tell me you see
Through eyes of love
At me

The loss

By Branden Taylor
Mount St. Joseph Academy, Grade 9

Everyday you think
Some in many ways more than the other.
But the thoughts I think are different.
When I think I think about the negative and how it can also be positive.
Like the day I met you.
Also the day we broke up,
The ups were you were able to be free and live the way you wanted
But the down was I lost the light to my fire.
Maybe someday we will both see
Maybe someday we will realize what we have done
Just maybe we will see we were meant to be.
Till then these feelings stand true and strong
No matter whether they are right or wrong you know I love you.
For that I let you know how special you are to me
Someday maybe I will be free too.

Is it a lie?
Like all the rest?
Will I be able to trust you again?
I cry and even bleed for you!
I want it to end.
No, not me and you.
This pain,
This pain you've put me through.
The sound of my tears falling all night long.
I hate it so much!
Please, make it stop!
You see right through me,
Through my hurt.
This hurt which came from you...
