Dono If this is how its supposed to be .....

I wish to be a kid again , because bruised knees were far easier to deal with than broken heart ....

Freshly nothing seems to change

And like any other nautical day

I deathwatch with this broken heart

That just won't go afield

The onliest thing I think about

Since you and I dismantled

Is how very much I'm loving you

And long to feel your touch

To feel you holding me again

The way you used to do

To talk and laugh and just be together

Would be a dream come true!

But maybe it's only fairy tales

That have that happy end

In any case I'll be alright

and you know where I am......

Without you I anticipated I'd go crazy!

The wretchedness too much to bear

I felt like the heartache would kill me!

With memories of you everywhere!

But somehow I've pulled it together

And I'm stronger for what I've been through

A little less bitter - yet wiser

Just doing the best I can do

I think of you more than I'd like to

Love is so damned hard to shake!

But time has a sweet way of healing

When living's been damned hard to take!

I wish you the best - and I mean that!

Though hopes for us never came true

I loved and I lost - but I'm not beat!

Yes - life does go on without you!

"To move on is to know you're in the direction of your path. For what is known to us as moving on, we find it more different when we are confronted by the idea that what was once ours is no longer. Though the heart has a fondness for such sentimentality we are happily moving on and away. Life is not the brevity of breaths but it is the unique way of holding onto those before we exhale away.

As to know where we go, well, only our soul compass can guide us to a different a light. A compass that never stays north rather it spins wildly as we take a walk with it. This is because the revolution of our life is in that very instrument. It spins so wildly as our sun does the same.

As to the heart, the fondness will find a place again with its same luggage. Do no fretting however to this luggage because this contains the personal belongings of what your believe is to be love. For what is to be love but a what when a love should be about the who. The who of us in how we love is what makes this love more different than what we will receive in the future.

It is the ultimate emotion as they say to love because no matter how deep our hearts go this will always be a reminder that a love once love is a love like no other."

Why I feel like I am the one speaking in this poem? It's funny that sometime in my life I have been in loved with a person whom I never thought to be the one. But the heart has its own beat which I can't control. So it happens like a magic...just unbelievable. And like a dream which has it's end...I have to wake up.
You're right. Life should go on...

So emotional and touching but well-done, Tuvi.

A splendid read and write...I like the first stanzas in the black more than the ones in the red...Just my opinion. More powerful sounding...:)

Its way disturbing throughout Tuvi, I felt like something which is really not good going on. Pictures are very loud and made sense to this poem. 1st phase is little stabilized. 2nd phase is more hurting and full of pain and sufferings

Well all i learned from this poem is we are human, we need care and understanding partner who will make our life more better and will understand us what we need and what has to be removed from our life.
Similarly, both the phases are heartfelt and powerful.

Thank you so much for this share :)
Keep writing such brilliant poems :)

Cheers!

It's funny. The poem has two phases but they are like two phases of the same hearache. In linear time one thing usually leads to the next, but there's a way in which, when we're suffering, we go back and forth between the desire to embrace and coddle our broken hearts and the longing to move on. The art work goes really well with your poem. I like the change in font color. That's not the only difference I feel between the two either. The word choice in the earlier part is lighter and more playful where the language in the later part is darker. It must have been a hard parting...
