Heartbreak anniversary
In the depths of sorrow's embrace,
A heartbreak anniversary takes its place.
A year has passed since love's demise,
Leaving scars that time fails to disguise.
Once, our love was a vibrant flame,
Igniting dreams, setting hearts aflame.
But fate's cruel hand intervened,
And shattered the love we once deemed pristine.
On this solemn day, memories arise,
Of whispered promises and tender sighs.
But now, they haunt like ghostly echoes,
Reminding me of love's bitter throes.
I still recall the warmth of your touch,
The way your laughter could heal so much.
But now, those moments are mere illusions,
Lost in the depths of love's disillusion.
The heartache lingers, refusing to fade,
A constant reminder of the price love paid.
Yet, through the tears and shattered dreams,
Strength emerges, as hope redeems.
For in the depths of heartbreak's abyss,
A phoenix rises, fueled by love's remiss.
Though scars remain, etched upon my soul,
I find solace in the person I've become, whole.
So, on this heartbreak anniversary,
I'll honour the pain that once consumed me.
For it taught me resilience, taught me to heal,
To find beauty in wounds that time can't conceal.
Though love may have faltered, and dreams may have died,
I'll cherish the lessons, the tears I've cried.
For in the aftermath of heartbreak's storm,
I've discovered strength,I never knew existed within my core.
Through shattered dreams and aching nights,
I found resilience, a flame that ignites.
On this heartbreak anniversary, I reflect,
Upon the pain that once left me wrecked.
But from the ashes, I rose anew,
With scars that tell a story, so true.
I've learned that love can be a double-edged sword,
Leaving wounds that take time to be restored.
Yet, in the depths of despair, I found grace,
A balm for my soul, a gentle embrace.
For every tear that stained my weary face,
I gained wisdom, a gift I now embrace.
I've learned to value my worth and my voice,
To make choices that align with my rejoice.
Though the ache still lingers, it has transformed,
Into a strength that cannot be conformed.
I've discovered the power to heal and forgive,
To let go of the past and truly live.
So, on this heartbreak anniversary, I say,
Thank you, for the pain that paved the way.
For without the darkness, I wouldn't have seen,
The light that shines within, so serene.
I'll cherish the lessons, the tears I've cried,
For in the aftermath of heartbreak's storm,
I've discovered strength, a love that's reborn,
And now, I soar higher than ever before.
