A Broken Heart That Beats



Hearts been broken, now twice
Not easy, to always pay the price
Left with no strength or desires
That mending back, always requires
 
My heart, now like a giant kaleidoscope
Glistens with abundant shades of hope
Reflecting your smiling face, its naughtiness in place
Memories of moments with you, sadness too I embrace
 
You are my weakness, my strength within
Love for you, much stronger than the pain I grin
Shall keep me standing even when your gone
This broken heart, needs no other song
 
A unique relationship, to remain unnamed
Your short journey, you have always claimed
Someday if our paths do cross again
Would lovingly repeat all, with you, even then

Mahesh Wadhwani

I always apologize for the length of my text as that’s the best way for me to communicate rather than verbally!! Not a man of many words but still manage to doodle when in mood to write, which is rare!! I am not even sure if what I scribble is poetry or even what form or just words that rhyme!! To me writing is an art, a sign of creativity and a means of expression. I don't really think that anyone can just write without any feelings, without having felt, without having lived, experienced or cherished. Whatever one writes, there is some amount of a persons own feelings and presence or of those around them, indicated in the works. So I am thankful to all the people in my life and those yet to come for having given me life, love, happiness and even pain. At-least I have had the opportunity to feel it , live it and express it, whatever it maybe. Cheers! more…
