The Heartbreak

A poem I'd written on 17 June 2023, but was too overwhelmed to post then. Putting this here as a last reminder of the pain, for which I'm very grateful. To anyone going through something similar- it shall pass and you shall grow exponentially in the process. Simply let it be.

You shattered my heart into pieces

and left me mopping up the remains.

Like broken glass,

every piece pierced my skin,

blood dripping, the deepest wound.

The agony weighed me down

and I was crushed underneath,

for a heart that fell in love

had fallen down from high ground.





I wished for you to be mine again

I wept and mourned, all in vain.

The separation left me broke and aching,

the abysmal pain in my heart never easing.


Triggers leave me crashing down at once.


A huge rock is knotted to my legs

and thrown unmercilessly into the dark blue sea.

I drown as all the agony weighs me down,

I choke on sorrow,

I drink distateful grief,

I spit out anger.

A tear manages to escape

and merge with the dark ocean water.

Paralysed by pain and

consumed by all the love I could no longer give nor take,

my whole being is tore apart from inside out.


The rock hits the ocean bottom

as I hit rock bottom.

My shattered heart shatters again

and the finest pieces scatter away,

spreading throughout the unfathomable vastness

of the dark blue sea.

In this void,

no tears, no agony,

neither grief nor love exists-

stark nothingness persists.
