About the Poem

This poem deals with the feelings of an individual who has broken up with his significant other. It is something that a majority of people feel after losing the one you love. At least, this is how I felt at the time. Breaking up is something that takes time to get over for some people.

Nobody

It's gone
What's gone? My mind?
Soul? No, I'm fine
Not really
Deep inside, something is missing
The love and tender kissing
She walked out herself
Now all I do is talk to myself
in the mirror, with my reflection
My heart is dead
Soon it will make a resurrection
Once the wounds heal
And I'm loved for real
A type of love I can feel
But nobody loves me
Nobody cares
Nobody loves me
That nobody is me
I can't love myself because no one does
I'm all alone and no longer what I once was
But the only thing that keeps me alive
Is knowing that the next day, it might all change
For the best
And that "nobody" becomes somebody

i love your poem. i have suffered from a broken heart for over ten years and found 'nobody'. that nobody was me. i guess if we choose not to love, even when it challenges us then we remain alone, forever - until we choose to love again as we should. in ignorance of all that went before, i am afraid. choose not to love at your peril as nothing but nothing comes after.

I loved this poem, i feel the same way. I just want to die, because she's moved and i havent.

I think this poem is the most depressing poem i ever heard, unfortunatly or fortunatly losing love is so painfull that this poem is actually good. But please remember the pain you are feeling now, is nothing compared to the real love and joy you will experience once the "one" finally shows up. all in its own time!

Hi Maze. I just want to tell you that as i was reading this I was looking back to my pass. Let me tell you I had one serious boyfriend in my whole life, and as i was reading it reminded me of him, he is no longer in my life, and we no longer talk to each other. I always knew that we weren't suppose to be together because, I knew that God didn't want that for me at the time because God had different plans. When I finally realized that God didn't want me to be with him, shortly after that we completely ended. This is when i came to God, and he has now healed me, no longer broken.

drea
my love of two years has just left me,i ache and pine for her every single living hour,the lights she lit up inside me have gone out,i feel alone and lifeless,this poem touched me and i sent it to her.
liza
this poem really touches my heart. coz at this very moment im in that situation. i love him but he left me. just because of the fact that he wants to explore. GOD damn it! he uses me. he made me a "sex slave"!
Katherine

paul
absolulty exelentt its time 4 a change thats a big push 2 wards it thank u out with old in with new
Dot
that poem was soo good it has touched my heart and the hearts of my friend plz keep writing
Brea
Well. where do I start? I nominated this poem because it really speaks from the truth of the heart. Once we are loved by someone, and that someone leaves us, we quickly become a nobody to ourselves. And when, in this poem, it is mentioned that the nobody is the writer, it really made me think. The author is right. The only one that sees the broken-hearted as a nobody is that person, themself. I know that, because I am that nobody. And this poem was almost like I was writing to myself. I love poems that I can relate to, so it makes perfect sense as to why I liked this one so much. You did an EXCELENT job writing this poem, and I encourage you to keep up the good work. I hope to read many more pieces from you. Awesome poetry. -Brea

Megan
I loved your poem, it made me start to cry. It touched me because I feel the exact same way, feeling like no one cares, and the only reason you get up everyday is because a little part of you thinks and/or hopes that the next day will be different.
Angelique

This poem touched me so much because for the first time in my life, I don't love myself either. I've dealt with plenty of breakups in my life, but this is the first time I can't look in the mirror and still love myself -- it's a scary thing.

I like your poem the only thing is is i relate to that totally. just never been able to write it in one of my poems i always seem to just make my poems about love and lost. maybe it;s because that is all that it really is you love someone and then it;s some how lost

Parul
The poem deserves accolades for it's touching simplicity of expression.so true, so blue! Yes, it's difficult when the panorama of dreams U've cherished for ages takes on a dark shadow of empty craving.the sweet words u've been addicted to, are lost in the ramblings of your complaining heart.and the worst part is when it's yr own self you don't trust!
Char

Pat
