She Loves Broken Things

Posted in PoemsTagged , , , , , , , , , , ,

As the moon malevolently beams
My nightmares blossom like roses during springs.
But tonight, I hope to meet her in my dreams
For, I’ve heard, she loves broken things.

I’ve heard, in her eyes burn countless constellations
While that winged seraph plays her harp’s strings.
Hopefully, she’ll quell my horror laden hallucinations
For, I’ve heard, she loves broken things.

I’ve heard, her voice calms the restless oceans
& she out carols all the nightingales when she sings.
Perhaps with a lullaby, she’ll soothe my raging emotions
For, I’ve heard, she loves broken things.

I’ve heard, with her humble divine grace
She wraps dysfunctional tragedies in her wings.
Perhaps she’ll wipe the tears too, from my face
For, I’ve heard, she loves broken things.

I’m broken but I consider myself blessed
For some ruins, hold treasures more than the wealthiest of kings
& I’ll outpour my hidden treasures on her heavenly breast
For, I’ve heard, she loves broken things.

To satisfy her abstract compassionate art
With my last breath, I surrender somethings.
I give her my shattered soul, my broken heart;
& perhaps with love, she’ll mend those broken things.

Note: At various junctures of life I’ve often felt ruined beyond repair, this poem is dedicated to people who have often felt broken due to various reasons in their life. In this poem, ‘Broken Things’ is a metaphor for emotionally broken people. Just like mystic treasures are often hidden in ruins similarly divine emotions are hidden within broken people, & if you value a broken person he/she will subliminally pour out his/her heart for you. So if you ever come across a broken person then don’t be judgmental about their past & don’t mock at their scars. Be compassionate & see their scars as spaces that you can fill with your kindness & understanding. For, there is no greater joy than making a broken person feel complete once again. ❤

  6. Beautiful words touching the heart deep with wonderful illustrations. I really like what you wrote in the note so as not to embed the past of others or laugh at their scars. Although words do not change people’s minds, they leave hope for a change. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

      8. Yes, I’d say you are that rare kind of priceless poet that isn’t concerned about the number of likes or comments that she gets but instead focuses on staying true to the poetic emotions. Besides beauty always lies in the eyes of the beholder and based on what I’ve read i can assure that you are one in a million, Leia . ❤️

      9. Honestly, all I want to do is get the love, pain, anger, and hurt out. I’m happy that people resonate with it – and it certainly does fulfil my childhood dream of being a writer.
