Heartbreak

My heart

The centre of feeling

To say it has broken

Is to say that a downpour

Is a mild drizzle

you said the parting words

I fell apart

My ribs clamped inwards

My breath thrown out

My heart shattered

The pieces fly

Like the shrapnel of a grenade

Slashing each other

Pulverizing into

smaller

ˢᵐᵃˡˡᵉʳ

Fragments

Until the heart works no more

Each unit smaller than a cell

More useless than a valentines rose

The heart tries to love

But it cannot

The red bloody chest powder

Sparks

Ignites

It tries to organize

Collect itself

But it falls apart

Over

And over

And over

Again

Day after

Day

Night after

Night

It fails to feel

Until a miracle happens

To remake it

Anew

Together
