I’m trying to move on
I picked up the shattered remains
Of my heart and soul
And I’m trying to move on

But it’s hard to walk ahead
When you can do nothing
But look back
Back to the man who rejected you
And find that, after all this
You still love him

If only I had another love
A love that I could look ahead to
Instead of looking back to
A love that isn’t the child of dreams
But a beautiful reality

I am waiting for you, my love
I’m trying to move on

Take me away from my broken self
Take me away from my hopeless love
And help me get together
And move on

How sad, Lovebug. Sorry things didn't work out for you!   Hope things are looking up for you SOON!

Nice writing.  Its tough to move on, but its something we have to do, just face another day and the beauty that it can bring.  Sometimes a new start is what we need the most.
Good effort LoveBug

I agree with Hoot, about taking the first step. And another thing, just between you and me, this will not be the last love of your life. There is someone out there that is dying to meet you and will love you with all his heart. You just haven't met him yet. But you will in time.
In the meantime, you've got lots of hugs here to keep you warm.
Love ya
Liz

Actually you are moving on by writing this lovely, sad poem (look and you'll see).
