To a prisoner of heartbreak 💔

Uncategorized 2 Minutes

Moving on when you are still in love is tough, but moving on when you are no longer in love is tougher,

Only you know what you had to go through to pass where you are and only you can account for your pain,

Only you know how many nights you had to sleep through to stop torturing yourself and only you know how many mornings you woke up to feeling a void inside you,

Only you know how passionately you prayed to heal and only you know that you gave more than just your heart to them,

Only you know how many tears it took for you to finally stand and smile and only you know how many times you had to let go to actually let them go,

Only you know how much you loved them and what it took for you to un-do them,

Sure your heart is not delicate anymore and love is not your weak spot anymore, but giving away even a tiny piece of yourself to someone is not something your heart is ready for anymore,

The trepidation is not because you lost what you loved it’s because you lost when you felt,

You don’t have the strength to love and lose again, you are afraid to fall for someone again, and you have lost too much already to give again,

This is the thing about heartbreak no matter how vehemently you cry, your tears are only yours to wipe, you are the only escape and this is only your journey to live,

So please, wipe your tears and live your journey, empowerment awaits you. Don’t question your tears and stop hating yourself to feel pain for them, it’s only your heart antidote to make you stronger, when you have already gave them so much of you it’s ok to shed some tears too.

The beauty of love is in the way you fall in it and after everything that you have been through to self heal, you can’t convince your heart to go over the entire process all over again. The flirting, the love, the promises, the intimacy, the fights, the tears, the insecurities, the seperation and the drama, it’s just not all worth it again,

You could be ready to move on but not ready to give your heart away just yet, and it’s ok.

With live and virtual hugs,

Your companion in love, hate, indifference and success.

  5. In that pain is the most profound thing you will ever find. By facing that pain it will give you an answer, the one you spend your entire life trying to find. You seek that love and happiness in your life, always seeking it in the love of another. But its truth resides elsewhere, it is the day you understand your fear, the one that upsets you in all your relationships. And it is never ‘them’, it is your reaction to what you feel is how you are treated by those you love and look up to as you grow up as a child, a rejection, a feeling of not being loved because there must be something wrong with you…and these you carry on into all your relationships. Find that inner pain, understand truly why being treated a certain way presses ‘that button’ that we all have. For in there IS what you have always sought, that love and happiness…by understanding why you react in all those relationships, it will set you free. Because you will see your truth and realise the only person that you haven’t loved truly…is you. That ‘held’ fear of not being good enough or a feeling of rejection is the only thing that stops you from loving yourself. That emotional wall that we all carry around from that belief will crumble the instant you ‘see’ the truth underneath it all, and when you see it you will realise that it all had great purpose in the way it has all happened. You have endured a great thing to follow this very painful and testing path…to find you. And it would not be appreciated unless it has taken you on this exact path. But as I say, when you finally see it you will break down in great tears…not upset tears but ones of such a profound moment as you see the beauty in what you have achieved…to love that one person who deserves it more than any other thing…to finally love you. By removing that ‘condition’ that you have held for so long you will finally realise another love, this time an unconditional one…yours.
    So, is there much pain…yes. But that very thing will set you free. Be brave, be strong and most of all, have faith that you will indeed find the very thing you have always wanted…down that very path ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋

  11. Asthaisha, broken relationships need time to grieve and heal just like all losses in life. The time will come when you will be able to enjoy the pleasant memories from the past relationships of your life. They are a part of you and a part of your life. At some point, you will be ready to meet someone else.

    This is a very wise and helpful post and a well-written poem. <Have a great week! 🙂 🙂 🙂
