From the day we met
It was fake
Pieces it, we clicked together like a pad lock
And so our journey began
You placed me on a cloud
Safe and happy I'd be
I'd stay,
Although unaware of all earthly harm
They day we began
I was blinded by love
But you weren't?
I was fully indulged
But you were a realist?
I dreamed childishly
While you stood by, listening hardly
The day you broke my heart
You were fine
Not a flinch,
Or a peek of a tear
Nor a frown
Simply a goodbye of lifelessness
That day, I awoke from my dreams
And feel, harder than imaginable
I fell through the clouds
Through the atmosphere, past the buildings and trees
And hit reality, finally, when you moved on
So there I lie, on the street
Below my window sill,
Without a beat from my broken heart

Another good closing line Felicity.
I have enjoyed these last two poems of yours. They are more direct and keeping with the flow but I'd like to see you shorten up the overall leangth yet still keep your meanings.
Good job!
