Heartaches Poem by Raiyan Asaral

I float, drifting in the air.

feeling hollow inside.

as I type these words

i can feel my hands crumbling, shaking

then, there’s that pang in my heart.

A sweet pang of pain.



She’s just at my side, few feet away.

Yet, it seems like we’re both lost.

We lost our way to each other’s smile.

Lost in our own worlds.

Pushed away by our own doings.



How long this will last?

How long we’ll pretend?

How long we’ll be able to keep it?

How much more we can take?



I know she’s hurting deep inside.

I barely sense her anymore.

Im afraid, things will never be the same again. Anymore.



I miss you.

I do. So much. I can barely hold my tears.

I miss you.

I do. So much. I want to hug you tight.

I miss you.

I do. So much. Hope you do too.



‘Cause this heartache is unbearable.
Soon, I’ll shatter.
