Worst Heartbreak Never

it was full moon.
you were nothing I had come across, ever
kneaded, as if, into the fabric of idiosyncrasy
i couldn’t think straight
caught, cornered, melted
by your webby aura and striking beauty
i pinched myself time and again
an appeal for my senses to snap back to reality
but no,
you got me trapped and wouldn’t let me go
he danced with you,
touched his lips on yours .
you had a man?
well, you looked it of course.
i take a sip of my Bloody Mary
and it slides like glue down my throat.
i never knew you,
beyond the goddess wall
i wonder why my heart is aching,
…we never spoke after all.

Life is joy,
Life is pain,
May be but a journey, the cloudy, the sunny, the rain.
About the regrets I watched stain my immaculate heart a million blotches time and again.
Injury to my wings,
Too broken to fly,
Too hurt and weary inside,
Making me a susceptible wretch of joy denied.
A bleak morning smiles,
An untold gesture of hope,
Of a future, a headway, a nod.
An improvisation of a lesson taught.
Lessons taught only to bring me back to my feet even more,
More composed than I was before.
A beautiful succession of peace,
that emits radiance beyond words could explain
and hurt could contain.
A gush of joy, in my heart, that lay
Made possible by the lamb that was slain,
For my sake, for your sake
That we’d be free from the incessant snares and gnarls that face us each day
Life is joy,
Life is pain
And with my God,
there’s always a way.
