Heart....

Heart....

A Poem by Wonderland Asylum

How do you fix a broken heart,
that has been broken too many times,
by too many people?
And in too many ways?
Not just broken by an ended relationship,
but also by people no longer able to be in their life?
and what about all those times, when no one would help her,
in her darkest times?
What about the friends that stabbed her in the back, 
who lied to her,
who used her?
How do you fix a broken heart, 
that is no longer in pieces,
but is dust?
Do you just leave her be,
and hope that with time,
she will be over it all?
That she will have healed?
How do you fix a broken heart, 
that is torn apart again, and again,
when she is separated from those she longs to be with?
Can you fix a broken heart,
that has been shattered by more than one person?
Shattered by more than one event, more than one reason?
Tell her how to fix her broken heart that sits in a pile of crumbs and dust.

Know that it’s now anything that you have done that sometimes life throws out lessons we need to learn and it can be harsh- we need to see it as this not self degrading or not being worthy- some people cannot love anyone else as they have there own issues and treating others badly is their defence- know all shall be well- look inside love yourself first then we can live others- rejection isGods protection and rather loonier than later - you want to be lived by the right one at the right time not settling for less you are worthy of so much more- love and blessings- words of heartache that are going to turn into hope🌹

A love for haiku poetry began in college, inspired by its simplicity and depth. The book Blue Harlequin captures these moments beautifully. Read the full article to explore the essence of haiku poetry: https://aoidemagazine.com/what-is-haiku-poetry/

A broken heart can be mended, not by others, but by self reflection and Self healing, by not soaking in your sorrows, by focusing on self and creating your own happiness without the interference of others. Being cautious of those you allow in your life. Thanks for sharing, stay inspired , keep writing

You cannot and nor will. A broken heart has a stubborn will, defiant, never to swoon again or spill.

You burn it, turn it to ash, and forge a new heart out of the ashes.

Loved this. So expressional.

I could feel the sadness and desperation in your poem, and I loved it! You did a wonderful job conveying your emotions into the poem.

You know, guys who dont even know how to 'handle' a girl's heart so filled with love shouldn't even dare to 'play' with it. 'Cause one day they're going to look back and realise the gravity of what they actually did...and they're going to regret it. You used the pronoun 'her' hence from a girl's POV. But all should be careful not to hurt anyone's feelings, just anyone's.
Evocative, relatable write. Good work!

How do you fix a broken heart? is a question that doesn't really have an answer yet the frustration and a sense of the unknown is conveyed very well and straightforwardly. Well done.

A difficult question my friend.
"Tell her how to fix her broken heart that sits in a pile of crumbs and dust."
Hard to find someone with common interest and dreams. I guess, we must hope and pray. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

I think you are good at connecting to feelings of sadness and depression, which resonates through your work. If there's no exaggeration in your words, I'd say to speak with a therapist of some kind. I think everyone goes through feelings of sadness and loneliness, especially in the teen and early twenties. As someone who has absolutely been through it, I can tell you that things can be better if you want them to be. Get a job or a hobby that takes most of your time. If you stay busy, you won't have time to focus on the negative.
This may seem dumb, but immerse yourself in positivity and humor. Follow some comedians with a message you relate to, or start listening to different kinds of music and watch different kinds of movies or tv shows. Read different kinds of books. The information you take in can absolutely affect your brain chemistry (there are studies that say people who watch too many romance movies are more prone to depression). Just some ideas, though they have nothing to do with the quality of your poem.
Your poem is written well, but the subject matter implies that you feel a lot of sadness in your life, so making a few changes might help. For instance, I fell into a deep depression last year and I realized it had to do with my intake of news, so I stopped completely. Downside is I'm now ignorant of current events. Upside is, I'm in a much better place.

Alternative, shy, loves music. I typically keep to myself, and am not very expressive. But when I write, it's like I'm some place else. I've been gone for a while, and I'm working on getting back.. more..
