Confessions of a Broken Heart

Confessions of a Broken Heart

A Poem by Kanhaiya Maheshwary

I swear I heard the heavens play a symphony when you said “I do”,
You understood me when words had failed to say how much I loved you,
All my vows, devotion, and wishes in life had come true,
Maybe you did once and don’t anymore, but I still love you;

We had seen a life together, with my head held in your arms,
I thought a world of you, saw a magical galaxy in your sweet charms,
But my head banged on the floor and all the dreams were broken,
Because deep down inside, you had many disturbing thoughts unspoken;

You spoke them one day and broke our countless infinities spent together,
But let me assure you one thing, my heart will be yours forever,
The very heart that once swelled with your name,
Will feel for no one else ever;

You ran over it, trampled it, and left it to fend for itself,
But you forgot you live inside, why’d you do this to yourself?
Why’d you do this to yourself, and why’d you do this to me?
What about the perfect future, what about the future We?

Forget the future for once, think about the momentous past,
Think about the wild love, the memories of which will last,
Maybe you’ll try turning a new leaf, with the dawn of the new beam,
But how will you escape them, when they’ll haunt you in your dream?

People will tell me tales of broken hearts,
They’ll tell me that not everyone lasts,
They’ll preach philosophy and tell me to move on,
But how will I, when only to love you I was born?
