Heartbreak Art

Such a pretty picture I've painted in my mind
A Monet of fantasy
A Van Gogh seek but no find
            Just an illusion really
            the imagination of my heart
            Mixed media emotions
            I call it Heartbreak Art
                         Dabs of disappointment 

                         across my internal canvas
                         There is us
                         and then there is this

"There is us
and then there is this"

so beautiful how you use the art images all the way through and then finish it out with this poignant line! you've painted this picture in your mind but it is not what your relationship with this person really is. you've deceived yourself within he beauty of the sadness. my favorite image was the mixed media emotions. great work!

I like the form of this, and the idea of "mixed media emotions". In Art, there is the real image, and then there is the artist's interpretation. You have expressed that perfectly - "There is us - and then there is this". Great.

A genuine heartfelt poetic classic in the making. This is what poetry is all about. Works like these don't come very often. So we must embrace them when they present themselves. Great write. :)

Melancholy but I love the concept behind this one. 'Mixed media emotions', very clever Keely.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

A powerfully sad and dramatic piece of poetry. Such images and comparitors. Nicely penned and heartfelt!

this is utterly gorgeous, Keely. being a huge lover of both Monet and Van Gogh, i was taken in by that concept of mixed media emotions...i guess you might count your blessings you don't feel like a Dali or a Kazinsky....excellent write!
