‘Heartbreak Rising’

Through the flames we are refined and rise a better self🌹

‘Heartbreak Rising’

Where does
The heart go
When the heart
Breaks-
As if there’s
An earthquake
Dividing one heart
Shared by two
Splitting it down
The centre
Jagged and
Leaving
You tattered
And
Torn-
Was this
Why you were
Born
To be
Lost and forlorn
Then why
Are we born
Like waste
Paper is torn
Crumpled
And
Torn
Left to be
Shredded
Discarded
Not much
Credit

Or
Is it the cycle-

It’s thrown
In the bin
To be part
If the re-

Re-cycled
Re-newer
Re-birthed
Re-glued

A

Re-gaining
Of me -

It’s a part
Of the hearts
Testimony

To be
Strengthened
To be free

If only we can see
In lessons
We learn
The breaks
And the
Burns
Are a part
Of a new start

The breaking
Of heart
Re- news
Every part
Ever inch of
The deepest part

Through
Falling apart
Is strengthened

The life span
Lengthened

Where cracks
They lie deep
And emotions
Don’t sleep
It strengthens
The beat
The arteries
Deep
Fresh blood
It does seep-

Removing the
Old
No matter
How cold
Listen
When told-

You don’t want
Your heart
Sold
Abused
Growing old

From out of
The ruins
The earthquake
The fumes

Re-births
Only new

Re-paired
Having shared
What it’s
Taken for few
Put together
With glue

Where the cracks
Allow light
Through
If only you
Knew-
To be broken
And battered
Emotions all
Tattered
It’s
All a part
Of the building
Of new-

A new
Happy you.

Wow, Kelly this really rings true with me. This poem. I think I need to hear this. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and gifts to us all. In teaching us to be happy and love who we are. Faults and broken parts also. hugs and much love Dawn.

Thankyou for your kind reviews always- yes it’s hard at times but we are all worth living no matter what others do or say we must not allow their negative thoughts and actions to darken and pollute our hearts as we are wonderful just the way we are- much love and blessings returned🌹

A beautiful sadness to your words and so gently but clearly written, each phrase complimenting another. Hearts are like kittens, they scamper after a teeny piece of wool yet.. back away from their tight ball home that could be dangerous. Perhaps we need a few scares to sharpen our senses, to find what we don't know is there.. a heart's response to our own.

Your writing positively drips thoughts...

Yes: ' Through ~ Falling apart ~ Is strengthened ~ The life span ~ Lengthened '

Oh I’m so glad it touched your depth- so nice to know you find common ground with the words- it’s all a journey of discovery of faith of love of self-improvement- hope you and your family are well-blessings🌹

[emmajoy]

Learning and all it holds really has to be a journey of discovery, just as its occupants should be! Life varies for everyone, but that's what it's all about, isn't it! Smiles galorious flying your way!

All things good straight back at you🌹

The heart surely is a silly organ; it sustains life yet causes great pain while doing this. We learn to protect it from harm yet always freely give it away at the slightest touch of love in the hope it is embraced truly. Most often it is not embraced but squeezed to within a beat of its own death by the carelessness of another. It makes me wonder if we will ever learn from our own mistakes when it comes to affairs of the heart. It seems that we are all fools in this regard. One can only hope that a reborn heart is forged from the fires of failed love.

A fine write, Kelly, in your distinctive cascading style.

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

Thanking you kindly- I always love to hear your thoughts- yes love is blind but oh so beautiful if given and appreciated correctly- there’s a fine balance I guess- but through it all love remains- hope all is well🌹

Very welcome. All is mostly well on my end. I hope the same is on yours.

We go on one day at a time sometimes the best we can do 🌹

i think the heart goes to a sort of Limbo to see and wait for what comes next...someone to bring it to heaven...or just another break, more hell....
