HEARTBROKEN YET STILL A GLIMMER OF HOPE

Broken

The heartbreak came, and with it, waves of pain,
A storm that raged within, relentless and insane,
As shattered hopes and dreams lay scattered on the floor,
I found myself lost, aching, longing for more.

The memories, they haunt me, like ghosts of what was,
And every whispered promise, now just an empty buzz,
The love that once consumed me, now replaced with emptiness,
As I stare into the void, wondering if I'll ever find happiness.

The tears that fall like raindrops, the sobs that shake my frame, The ache that grips my chest, a constant burning flame,
The nights are long and lonely, as I lie awake in bed,
And wonder if this pain will ever cease, or if it's all in my head.

I try to move on, to pick up the pieces and try again,
But the scars of heartbreak run deep, a never-ending pain,
The walls I built to protect myself, now suffocating and tight, As I struggle to breathe, to live, to find the strength to fight.

A shattered heart beats on, though weakened, sore,
A soul once whole, now broken to the core,
Love's tendrils reached so deep within the heart,
And now those tendrils tear and shred apart.

The world now seems like a darker, colder place,
Where once there shone a warm and loving grace,
The sun still rises, but it brings no light,
No warmth, no hope, just an endless, empty night.

The memories of love now pierce the soul,
Like thorns within a wound that never heal,
A phantom pain that lingers and takes hold,
A sorrow that refuses to repeal.

The tears that fall are endless, like the rain,
And with each drop, a memory, a pain,
A heart that once was filled with love and light,
Is now an empty shell, a soul in blight.

The ache that comes with heartbreak is profound,
A wound that never seems to be fully bound,
But though the pain may never fully fade,
The heart can still find love, a new crusade.

But through it all, I know that I will heal,
That the wounds will close, and the pain will slowly yield,
That one day I will love again, with a heart that's pure and strong,
And the echoes of heartbreak will fade, like a distant, mournful song.
