Broken Hearts

I hide my tears when I say your name, but the pain in my heart remains the same.

 

How could something so beautiful end up losing its attraction?

 

As there is a thin line between love and hate, I must admit, loving a person has never felt this great. 

 

They say time heals all wounds, but some wounds cannot be healed ‘cause with permanent scars, they have been sealed.

 

How do you mend a broken heart? How do you get back up, and where do you start? 

 

It feels like a dagger to my heart and with the pain it brings, I cannot help but break down and wonder – how did we lose our ground?

 

It’s hard to deal with this when all I have are the messages and sweet words that you left me.

 

“Am I not good enough?” is all I could ask and the insecurities I had left in my past came crawling back.

 

So many memories, all coming at once,

Voices in my head, with the songs that we had sung.

 

As tears rolled down my cheeks, with regrets and questions like “what could I have done right?,”

I still remember the taste of your lips and the warmth of your skin as it meddled with mine.

 

With all these scars, I can’t help but feel this emptiness inside. 

 

How did we get away from love? How did Love get away from us?

How do you heal a broken heart when all the pieces have fallen apart?
