heartbreak

They can break your heart, but they can't break your soul; poetry about lost love that comforts and uplifts.

The Grace of Silence
She struggles with the incomprehensible silence, After gifting you with life, love and support, The distance is monumental and no bridge can now be crossed,

Love's sweetest wine
In fields of dreams, where moonlight weaves, Two hearts entwined, beneath the eaves. Your eyes, twin stars that guide my way,

Whispers of the Forgotten
In shadows deep, where sorrow's song does weep, Lies shattered dreams, in corners bleak and steep. A heart once whole, now fractured, lost in night,

Intensive Care
after the pleasantries and subtleties of chattering on about the weather, needlework, craft shows, baby steps and diapers

Addictions. Content Warning.
It starts with a curiosity A desire to explore and feel It turns into a dependency A craving that seems so real It grows with every indulgence A habit that is hard to break It feeds on every reluctance A weakness that is easy to exploit It blinds with every illusion A fantasy that masks the truth It hurts with every collision A reality that scars the soul It isolates with every rejection A loneliness that fills the void It manipulates with every deception A lie that fuels the paranoia It consumes with every obsession A hunger that is never satisfied It destroys with every regression A failure that erodes the pride It enslaves with every compulsion A force that is hard to resist It kills with every dissolution A death that is hard to mourn It ends with a recovery A hope that is hard to find It heals with a discovery A love that is hard to define

Fragments of Love. Content Warning.
In the caverns of a shattered heart, Where whispers of love now depart, Echoes of laughter once danced free, Now drowned in tears, a silent plea.

Intertwined Souls. Content Warning.
In the dance of hearts, we find our rhythm, Two souls, entwined, in love's prism. With each step, a story unfolds, In the tapestry of relationships, bold.

The Green-Eyed Monster. Content Warning.
In shadows lurks a feeling deep, Where envy wakes from silent sleep. Its eyes, a shade of verdant hue, Cast glances tainted, dark and true.

Existential crisis of love
The existential threat of living every day creates plaguing conditional thoughts of why; when parts of you, you once loved have passed away. To grieve the loss of parts of yourself holds no promises of perfect healing. People may tell you to wait out the dark because light is inevitable like the rising of the sun but what they fail to say or remind you is that grieving the loss parts of you is gone and that you should try to love the broken pieces of what’s left.
