A request

I'm looking for any poems you guys might have on dealing with heartbreak, moving on, etc, but that aren't cheesy or overly dramatic. Thanks heaps.

The Unchanging

Sun-swept beaches with a light wind blowing
From the immense blue circle of the sea,
And the soft thunder where long waves whiten --
These were the same for Sappho as for me.

Two thousand years -- much has gone by forever,
Change takes the gods and ships and speech of men --
But here on the beaches that time passes over
The heart aches now as then.

Sarah Teasdale
