Poetry of the Broken Heart

 Lost in the trail of success, 

Fame and time. 

He walked into the empty Villa. 

Turning on the lights of his luxurious home 

His eyes fell on the wall full of pictures.

Moments that have passed by. 

Her smile. Her tears. Her fears, 

All came haunting back.

He gulped down the drink. 

Not letting the guilt get to him again.

Trying to forget the pain Void. 

Emptiness, Regret. Despair.

He lost her, 

First slowly, then all at once. 

He had never paid attention 

To her silent screams. 

Her vanishing dreams. 

He realised it all day. 

Her presence was replaced in a moment, 

By a paper and memories. 

And he knew for sure. 

In the rat race called Life 

He had lost this once. 

Life in all its flavours. 

Is it worth the fame and success? 

Only if someone is there 

To share it with you. 

Life was always about 

Chasing dreams for him. 

Until today, he has realised 

She had always been 

His only fulfilled dream.
