A Broken Heart

A promise to be together is broken,
just not a promise but my soul
      which always loved you,
no matter how risky it was for me.
     I traded my heart in return for 
your love
           ended being betrayed and totally
broke,
wreck me completely but not my
     heart ,which is always for you
 and awaits you.
Living happily with someone
      in the castle ,built of our memories'
is a death bed to me.
Just for second ,could not you see
what you are to me
           Listen to my broken heart,
what its saying to you.
         Take a step back and turn back
around and see where I am,
           holding pieces of my heart
in  hands.
     You could not see tears in my ears and
now you are making me cry.
           How could you just walk away from my life,
from me crushing my soul.
        I will die for you every day ,
to see  you alive.
you were my valentine for a lifetime
   and  you are gone leaving me
in miserable pain.
Atleast tell me how to live without you.

Such a sad but beautiful poem, you truly have talent for expressing true love and your feelings, remember somebody told me that the past is dead but the future is bright look ahead and you ll definately find someone but it s trey that when someone so close to you leaves you or went away it felt like your purpose of living has ended, you don t wanted to do anything however I m new here and would really appreciate if you could find time to read my poems and give your honest reviews about them

The name of the pain is "the pain of absence of loved one", it inspires to live life one side and kills from the other side. It's mysterious. Wonderfully adorned. Loved always, bl
