I Thought My Heart Was Broken

I thought my heart was broken
On the day she said goodbye
I loved her so much
I loved her too much
All my friends said
“You’re better off without her”
“Plenty more fish in the sea”
But I wasn’t so sure

I thought my heart was broken
But in the end I was mistaken
Though I felt pain
I don’t want to feel again
My friends were right
I was better off without her
And there were more fish in the sea
Of that I was assured

I thought my heart was broken
On the day she said goodbye
But it was not you see
And if she had not left me
Then my friends, the matchmakers
Would not have trawled the seas
And found the perfect girl for me
My future is now secured

Tables Turned

A poem which just avoided inclusion with the sad love poems because the overriding message, once we get over the pain of the separation, is overwhelmingly positive - you can be freed from an unsatisfactory relationship and find something (or someone) a great deal better.
