How Does It Feel? Poem by Hillary Unknown

How does it feel? ...
How does it feel to have your heart
ripped in two?
How does it feel to jump every time
the phone rings,
hoping he’s calling to talk to you?
You hope he’ll tell
you he was wrong; that he made a mistake.
He loves you and wants you back.
How does it feel to
have everyone think that you’re
weak, just because
you have to cry?
How can you not?
How does it feel to not know what’s
going to happen next?
You feel so scared and confused.
What should you do?
How does it feel to be pitied by
everyone?
They try to help, but it just makes
it worse.
How can they expect you to forget
the best time of your life?
How does it feel to not be able to
get him from your mind?
How does it feel to feel like you
did something wrong?
You feel like it was your
fault that he left.
How does it feel to not be able
to not be able to stop
your gut-wrenching sobs?
How does it feel to
never be able to hold his hand
again?
Or feel his arms around you?
Or feel his lips on yours?
How does it feel to be left out?
You try to be civil to him,
because you still love him.
You hope with every
breath that you take, that he’ll
tell you he wants you back.
That his life’s empty without you.
But you’ve finally accepted
that he won’t.
