Tale of a Breaking Heart

April 26, 2010
By Anonymous

Do you always feel unfamiliar?
Though everybody seems similar

Do people always say to you
Nobody will ever love you?

Do you feel yourself hurting?
Before you see the bleeding?

Do you feel like you would die?
For one who is never by your side

Can you feel your heart breaking?
When you know you shouldn't be aching?

omg this had so much feeling and emotion to it, you could feel yourself in the story the writer was portraying...i know exactly how it feels to have your heart break.... all i can say is that time's the best healer. i loved this poem, it was so sad and sweet. definitely one of my favs.

I can relate so much to the last to stanzas. I have recently felt my heart breaking, when I know it shouldn't even be aching. It's like when you love someone and they barely know you. You already feel attached, and you know you shouldn't already have fallen so hard.
