My heart hurts..
My head lays heavy..
My chest feels empty..
My hands shake..
My lungs cant draw breath..
My eyes stay wet..
Is this what heart break is..

My First Heart Break
They say a mother’s love is all encompassing
A mother’s love is power
A mother’s love gives sustenance
A mother’s love heals wounds
A mother’s love embraces the heart and soul
She birthed me
She raised me
She fed me
She loved me
But never as much as she did my kin
She birthed her before me
She put her on a pedestal
She nourished her
Mind body and soul
She adored her
More than she ever did me
They say a mother’s love is all encompassing
But my mother’s love is fickle and conditional
A mother’s love gives power
But my mother’s love makes me weak and frail
A mother’s love gives sustenance
But my mother’s love leaves me yearning and famished
A mother’s love heals all wounds
But my mother’s love breaks me and creates deep gashes
A mother’s love embraces your heart and soul
But my mother’s love shatters my heart and cracks open my soul
A single thought
I sit here watching you
Looking at your face
I suddenly realize
You are not so handsome after all
I sit here listening to you speak
Listening but not really hearing you
Then I realize
Your words aren’t so sweet after all
I sit here seeing you move
Watching your hands
And realize suddenly
Your touch isn’t so soft and affectionate after all
I sit here peering at you
gazing deep into your eyes
And I realize suddenly
Your eyes aren’t so deep and loving after all
I sit here wondering
Maybe, just maybe, you are not it
Maybe you are not my soul mate
Maybe I’m not in love with you after all
I sit here saddened by a thought
A thought I’m having for the first time since we met
A thought sending shocks through my being
A thought that maybe
I just might have to break your heart
And in turn break my own heart
