CAPSIZING HEART

ANTICIPATION

you await his approach

you hold his gaze and smile

he smiles back and walks over

you wipe your sweaty palms

as you await his introduction

LAUGHTER

you talk about everything and nothing

you laugh and flirt

he puts a smile on your face

has a way of cracking you up

you are happy

LOVE

you wear his favourite colour

he looks into you and holds your hand

you can't get enough of each other

everyday turns into valentines day

You are in love

PAIN

he rarely calls

he gets angry when you keep caling

always busy with everything else but you

your fears are confirmed when you read his phone messages

you feel the pain deep in your gut

HEARTBREAK

you read the signs too late

you listen as he kills your hopes

-it's not you, it's me-

you look him in the eye as he stabs your heart

your heart crumbles

you struggle against the wind

you try to fight the big dark waves

you feel the storm nearing

but you let go as the big wave hits

your heart capsizes

Thanks for the comment Punishment. Yeah, we go through it and even after the pain we still do it all over again! It's just nature I guess. Take care

Your poem holds a simple truth. Good or bad I guess you have to accept Love for what it is. Nice Poem Whiteheart!

Excellent DEB.
Couple of small edit words and spaces..but the message is pure and recognisable by all who have felt,and been, in the stormy seas of love.

Thanks Pratibha. We all have to go thorugh it sometime, thats the sad part, it's the picking ourselves up that is even more painful. Glad you liked it.

Fantasitc work Deb, yes it is an unfortunate fact that we all have to go through this pain and yet it's one of the few pains we go through where we willingly rish putting ourselves through it time and again.

Definately true. In fact love is just like that. The pain is there as I have an experience. We should always be ready for anticipation, sadness, rejection.......... if we indudge ourselves in love.

Thanks for the comment. I think we are always ready, somewhere in our subconscious at least....but still the real thing is always more painful than we imagined it would be.

a powerful narrative. very vivid with the voice of the author, this is written with care and expertise. I have enjoyed this. Keep writing.
