Heartbroken Poem To Help You Heal
If you’ve ever been through a sad break-up with someone you’ve love, you may have written a heartbroken poem. You may have even written such a poem for things like the loss of a pet or a family member, sadness at moving away from your friends, or any number of sad life events. But it seems nothing inspires such sad poetry as a break-up or divorce. Just as few things inspire love poetry quite like being in a happy, loving relationship.
Poetry is an excellent medium for self-expression. Unless you’re writing poetry with the hope of having it published one day, you can write poetry however you like. It doesn’t have to be good poetry. You don’t have to understand any of the poetic terms or conventions like rhyme, meter or free verse. You don’t even have to have ever read a really good poem in your life to write a heartbroken poem that can help you feel better and maybe help you heal from the pain of a break-up.
An important early step in getting over a break-up or any sad situation is simply facing the pain. While it might feel better to avoid dealing with the reality of the situation, you can’t really move past it without facing it and feeling the pain, at least for a while. So facing up to whatever painful situation is happening is necessary. A heartbroken poem can help you deal with those painful feelings when you’ve split with someone you love.
Don’t worry about whether it’s good or not. No one else ever has to read your heartbroken poem. It’s for you and you alone. Just write down your feelings, as hard as that may be. You can write in plain language. Don’t try to imitate the poets of the 17th and 18th century. Write like you talk, and break the lines where it feels natural to you. In fact, you can start by writing one huge paragraph filled with all your feelings and everything you want to express, just to get it out. Then you can go back and arrange your thoughts and feelings into a poem.
Once you’ve written a heartbroken poem, you might want to write more about different parts of the pain. That’s good. Get down everything you can, and that will help you to face the pain. Writing the poetry will probably be a very emotional time for you. Don’t try to stop it. Just let the pain out and you’ll be better able to move on.
If you decide you want to share your heartbroken poem, you can show family or friends. Or if you want to share it but not with anyone you know, you can put it online. There are websites designed just for such things. You can upload your poetry for free and let other people know if you want to receive criticism or not. You might opt to not receive comments on your heartbroken poem and just enjoy the fact that you’ve shared your experience.

Relationship Quotes
Sometimes the best way to say something is the way someone more literary than you has said it. In that vein, here are some relationship quotes of note:
"Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down."
-Oprah Winfrey
"Some of the biggest challenges in relationships come from the fact that most people enter a relationship in order to get something: they're trying to find someone who's going to make them feel good. In reality, the only way a relationship will last is if you see your relationship as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take." -Anthony Robbins
"Some people come into our lives and leave footprints on our hearts and we are never ever the same." -Flavia Weedn
"The act of forgiveness is the act of returning to present time. And that's why when one has become a forgiving person, and has managed to let go of the past, what they've really done is they've shifted their relationship with time." – Caroline Myss
"Love is the irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired." – Mark Twain
"Well, it seems to me that the best relationships - the ones that last - are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is... suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with" ~ Gillian Anderson
"Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies." – Aristotle
"The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart." – Helen Keller
"Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl - no superior alternative has yet been found." – Winston Churchill
"It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and persevering courtship. Love is the offspring of spiritual affinity and unless that affinity is created in a moment, it will not be created for years or even generations." – Kahlin Gibran
"To love means to commit oneself without guarantee, to give oneself completely in the hope that our love will produce love in the loved person." – Eric Fromm
"Man is a knot into which relationships are tied." ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
"You can't stop loving or wanting to love because when its right, it's the best thing in the world. When you're in a relationship and it's good, even if nothing else in your life is right, you feel like your whole world is complete." ~ Keith Sweat
"Our greatest joy-and our greatest pain comes in our relationships with others." ~ Stephen R. Covey
"Love doesn't just sit there like a stone; it has to be made - like bread, remade all the time, made new." – Ursula LeGuin
"Once the trust goes out of a relationship, it's really no fun lying to 'em anymore." -Norm from Cheers

How Do I Get Her Back?
Guys find themselves thinking "What can I do to get her back" after a breakup. Then they begin philosophizing about things that should have been done different, even making plans to write apology letters, anything to help them score the relationship back in-tact.
This is a dead end for one reason above all: You can never tell what the real issues were behind a breakup. Women much of the time become emotional and often do not even know what led up to the break up and they may not realize what is causing them to feel the way they are. It is harmful in many situations to lose all your energy trying to figure out what went wrong.
The primary strategy to answering the question of "what can I do to get back my ex girlfriend" is to let things cool off for a while, do some other things. Go out, meet people, make friends, have fun, forget about women for a while. Set some realistic goals to expand your repertoire when it comes to relating to women.
Take a couple months, make some changes in your life, spend time away from the ex and it will work wonders. However much time you need in order to get your emotions and your head clear.
Once you have your head on straight its time to strategically work on getting your ex-girlfriend back. You don't want to be wussy and beg though. Women don't respect that.
Play it cool. If you have given everything enough time, she is probably missing you as much as you miss her. Let her know you are doing well (playing hard to get), but don't over do it. This will get her really re-thinking things.
If getting back with your ex is meant to be, this is when it will be apparent. Remember to analyze is to paralyze, over analyzing could prevent you from acting correctly when trying to figure out what to do to get your ex girlfriend back.
Trying to get back at her or trying to make her feel jealous is not a good way to do things. This in fact can be some of the worst things you can possibly do, since it will show your ex that she should simply move on because you already have. You want her to see that you are doing OK, but you don't want to inspire her to move on if you ideally want to get back together. Let her see how strong and confident your are, and she will want to get back with you.
