Fractured Heart Poem by Sneha Murali

pieces of shrapnel piercing my heart
sprouting and spewing blood
each step a reminder of people apart
the pain even more when you walked away

you stepped on my soul and crushed my hopes
and ended my only reason for happiness
black clouds weighing down with anger and shame
they shower down on me, my world a mess

a cracked spirit and a fractured mind
you led me through to the end of the road
a knife through my heart you did put in me
and you sliced my dreams with your sword

still in love, i cant seem to make it end
but still thinking of the pain you put me through
I've lost my senses, so i cant pretend
yes, i still have a soft place for you

an empty me, an empty life to live
forever doomed in the time of you and me
not being able to move forward or even give
a second chance to myself for time to be

i never even got to tell you goodbye
i never even knew that i should
but you made it clear, you didn't want me
if i could change the outcome, you know i would

forever never lasts, i found it out now
when you broke me into irreparable pieces
when you pained my heart and how
i should have never let you in

get out and stay out, take your black clouds too
my world is already crushed beyond repair
the damage is done, all done by you
the pain's all mine and not yours to share
