I said I’d take a break—
no more stanzas, no more sighs.
But here I am again,
rhyming reasons why he lied.
My notes app is a graveyard,
full of metaphors and moons,
each one dressed in heartbreak,
spinning verses out of wounds.
Oh look—this one’s a haiku.
It ends with "you never called."
The next is six sad pages
of “I almost had it all.”
I write love like it's a hobby,
like heartbreak is a sport—
If feelings were a kingdom,
then I’d build it out of chords.
My friends say, “Girl, he’s not that deep,”
but I say, “Wait—this line!”
Then suddenly I’m weeping
over couplets in a rhyme.
It's tragic. It's magic.
It’s mildly unwell.
But if I don’t write it down,
how will I ever tell—
That once I felt something
wild and true and bright?
Even if it ghosted me
before the second night.
So here's another poem
for a boy who won’t respond,
but at least I’ll be remembered
for turning pain into a song.
About the Creator
Brie Boleyn
I write about love like I’ve never been hurt—and heartbreak like I’ll never love again. Poems for the romantics, the wrecked, and everyone rereading old messages.
