I Have a Broken Heart

Fifteen years invested into a relationship. I tried talking to him, he wouldn't listen, I put my arms around him, he pushed me away. Without so much as a goodbye, he packed his stuff and drove away.
This pain won't leave me. The tears always come back. My heart is shattered. I'm too defeated to start over again. I never wanted to die alone.

I am sorry you are hurting so badly right now. I know from experience that words don't really help. However many years ago I was where you are now. Feeling shattered, alone and not wanting to get up in the morning or go to sleep at night. I thought my life was over then. Little did I know a few years later that someone would walk into my life when I least expected it and wasn't even looking. I ended up having a beautiful life with this man, raising a family and having everything I didn't think I would. He has passed away now but I have my family, my memories and most importantly,he gave me back my dignity and self respect. I don't say it will be easy for you but I wish for you all the beautiful things in life again. ((hugs))
