Echoes of Heartache

By M Azeema

1.

He succeeded

In experimenting

Love for her.

She failed

To acknowledge

All his experiments.

In the end,

Knowing

She was only his apparatus.

2.

The pain

You gave me

Is worse

Than hellfire.

You wonder?

Yes, I'm alive,

I'm alive.

What kind of monster does this?

3.

A moving girl,

But a motionless body.

A lump in her throat,

But a speechless mouth.

Her dry eyes,

But a tearful vision.

Craving to be heard...

Dying to be loved...

Screaming to be understood…

Silently weeping…

What more can express my state?

My dear friend,

Will you pull me closer...

Give me a long hug... so that…

I can breathe out!

Now,

Listen to my heart...

For one last time…

Before my soul ascends.

4.

In the long nights,

The smiles in your eyes

Lock my sight, while

The blush on your cheeks

Takes my breath away, where

The kiss on your lips

Skips my heartbeat. That

Rhythm of your tongue

Freezes my nerves, and

The play of your hands

Tickles my soul,

Under the dark skies,

With the starry lights.

Wondering, why?

All this in the dark?

Aren't we meant to

Love and light up

Our lives,

In the flashing lights, facing the crowd, my bride?

5.

The emptiness you made

In my sleepless nights,

are the scary times.

These lonely vibes,

Are the high tides.

Never calming,

Never pleasing,

Forever waving,

In my future lives,

Sliding

From my painful eyes,

As tropical raindrops.

6.

I miss you... I screamed...

The sound of my voice hits the ground,

Breaking down the earth.

I miss you... I screamed again...

The heaviness of my heart reaches the moon,

Turning it black.

I miss you... I screamed heavily...

The call of your name reaches the caves,

Echoing countless times.

I miss you... I screamed...

The tears from my eyes make their way to the desert,

Watering its land.

I miss you, screaming

To a heartful creature...

With blurry eyes and a speechless mouth,

An aching heart... and a shattered soul...

Now,

Won't your heart melt for once?
