Heartbreak

My heart is being squeezed inside my chest.
Why does everything good have to end?
One sign of a flaw, and suddenly I'm alone
I am empty.
Alone.
Forgotten.
The echoes of love leave me in unbearable pain
I could never have imagined until this moment.
I want to be angry.
But I strike myself down
Beat myself for the pain I caused myself.

This was my fault.
I tried to pursue what could never be
In blind lovesickness
This was my fault.
Mine.
Mine.
Mine.
MINE
The words scream at me, attacking
Deadly

I can't make sense of them.
Even on the brink of clarity
It evades my grip
This is the worst type of torture.
A Hollow heart.
A Broken soul.
The love I feel,
the anger I feel,
the sadness I feel and feel and feel.
Will not go away.
I can't.
I can't.
I CAN'T.
It hurts too much.
Imagining what could have been
Leaves me in a pool of despair

With the loss of innocence, comes reality
The crushing reality of heartbreak
