Tired Heart

When a heart breaks one loses ones soul,
no longer does the joy of love in you awaken,
you no longer have that feeling of being whole,
love has been cast aside and you are forsaken,

Again one is left to look around,
feelings and emotions left you broken up,
difficult now to try and cover new ground,
will there ever be another to fill loves cup,

Your heart gave everything it had,
love enraptured within and bloomed,
now its so tired and feeling sad,
its lifeless, loveless and feeling doomed,

Friends say one has to let it all go,
their sentiments are truly sent,
but it is not their heart that is on show,
the love within is now well spent,

When ones heart was truly fired,
alive and hugely enchanted by you,
empty now and feeling so very tired,
broken and damaged right through,

So many words of love that were said,
notions and ideas filled in my head,
my heart was taken in and lapped all it was fed,
now your gone and it has been left half dead.

Time is meant to heal all,
mind is now comfortable with the loss,
but my heart is still at a stall,
it has paid dearly in cost.

About this poem:
When one has deeply loved another and felt everything right through your bones, it is hard to gain the momentum to look forward and tread new ground. These are my feelings and how I perceive this lost love, one day I will be that person who will love again it just takes time.

Stedan, yes indeed time is the healer, and time is also the reminder of such a love gone to the tomb of memories...

So nice to see you back.. Or should I say me had to come back and see you all guys....

A delight to share in the feelings of pain with the hope that time will heal and make us love again...

Thanks Stedan...take care...

You said it all, dear poet, said it all: "it just takes time," and your friends are right: seeing your hurt they know better, they know what is to be done, a little effort is needed - been there done that. And now you came to similar conclusion, because "Time is meant to heal all," and your healing process has just begun. You better stick to your friends: they mean what they say and they mean well. Many thanks for sharing!

Thank you LJ, Joseph and dear Marika for your kind words yes healing all the time but still feel those pangs of heartache now and again. It is not often that you come across someone who meant so much even if it was a brief interlude in life but eventually all will pass and just the memories of what once was all one can wonder is if they feel the same sometimes.
