The Beautiful Heartbreak

by Talha Jafri
When the heart aches everyone thinks to the time where the heart achieved so much Its unable to fathom the fact that it is broken and needs to cured But we carry on through each day routinely Unable to bare the pain, we shield ourselves in the heartbreak We listen to the worlds melody to relax us Nothing seems to work to heal the pain When the heart is denied of its love, it needs to reciprocate the love in the best possible way We have the supports of friendship to not constrain us in our pain Courage begins to pile up behind the excess of depression Hope begins to shine through even though the heart is aching for redemption Its funny how the heart eventually finds it redemption We often cant understand But in pain we put ourselves in a mirror and self examine We look past our strengths and glorify the flaws within us They shine, oh so brightly, to illuminate the darkness of the human soul The devil decides to tempt us And then, we walk towards the dark side Only to find that we are beginning the construction of our human soul Finding just what exactly it means to have everything fall apart Its unclear to us but as young people in this world We cannot understand the extent of true love How the heart can withstand the resistance Constantly tugging in the game of love We start off unfocused without a sense of commitment And end up declaring the purpose of all commitments in the world When the clouds begins to show the sunshine, Our minds begin to clear up And the beautiful heartbreak comes to an end Where pain defines you and loves leaves you in mystery Like it always will, Definitions give us the meaning of life and the mysteries give us the beautiful uncertainty of life Defining us and showing us just who we really are Heartbreaks destroy us But heartbreaks rebuild us in new ways that we didnt know can be built And the love that started off so strong Becomes the love that keeps on guard Until, eventually, we accept and eventually find ourselves back into loves mystery
