Chapter 4 – Heartbreak

Partial Chapter from the book ''Love Poems: Are You The One?''

Chapter 4 – Heartbreak

Heartbreak is one of the most painful emotions that can be felt.  I would not wish heartbreak on anyone.  It’s hard enough to fall in love with the right person.  When you add heartbreak into the mix, this creates fear, baggage and obstacles for any future love interests that you will have.

Have you ever been cheated on?  Have you ever cheated?  And if so, what made you do so?  This is just one of many things that can cause heartbreak.  Heartbreak can cause hurt and feelings of lost after the end of a relationship. 

It’s hard to know when to end a relationship.  Before I’ve ended previous relationships, I wondered several things.  Is this the right thing to do?  Am I rushing to judgment?  Should I try to make this love work?  Although those questions were thought about, the heartbreak at that time was inevitable. 

I’ve seen other people deal with heartbreak in different ways.  Some people jump right into something with a new person to help them get over the past person.  Others take more time to heal and they need time before trusting again.  Personally, when I’ve gone through heartbreak, I gave myself time to heal and I put closure to my past.  I’m a naturally compassionate person, so I don’t believe in bringing past baggage to a new relationship.


If you’re dealing with heartbreak, don’t suppress it.  Allow yourself to deal with it so that you can move past it.  With the right amount of time, heartbreak can heal.   It doesn’t mean that you have to stop loving the person.  However, you can get to a point where the heartbreak doesn’t have to paralyze you and poison your heart with fear of being hurt again.  This is the monster called Heartbreak.
