Linda Farrar Poems

I never knew what to make
Of the word that is heartbreak
It always seemed like a funny word
In my life, only seen and only heard.
...

The only thing I have is the picture that you sent
The place where my heart use to be is spent,
I think about where you are and all day what you’ve done
Yet I know I can never share in all your boyish fun.
...

this love is not what it needs to be,
no flowers or candy or romance for me,
spending special days alone
waiting by the telephone
...

What the hell did you mean to say?
I love you? Well it did not come out that way,
Your actions are childish, your schemes not cool
Well this older woman just isn’t a fool.
...

Waking up this morning
The truth set us free
I ignored every warning
That you don't love me.
...
