A heart that’s broken but still searching
A mind that’s tired of feeling uncertain
A soul that’s desperate to find the truth
A spirit that’s longing for clarity

Today is broken, so I will cry
Today is broken, so I will cry,
A solitary tear, a river wide,
A sorrow’s depth, a sky’s height,
A fragile soul, a world’s weight.
The morning dawned, a false promise made,
A lie that mocked, a truth betrayed,
The sun rose high, a fiery blade,
That cut through dreams, a night’s disguise.
Yesterday’s memories, a faded hue,
A past that taunts, a present Blue,
Regrets and what-ifs, they crowd the mind,
A chorus chanting, a melody unkind.
Tomorrow looms, an uncertain guest,
A shadow dancing, a future unblessed,
The wind howls warnings, a storm’s portent,
A darkness gathering, a tempest’s consent.
Today is broken, so I will cry,
A lonely figure, against the sky,
A single drop, a deluge vast,
A sorrow’s ocean, forever fast.
The stars above, a distant throng,
A celestial choir, a heavenly song,
They sing of hope, a gentle breeze,
That whispers secrets, a symphony of ease.
But here on earth, a different tune,
A discordant beat, a funeral march boon,
The trees stand still, their leaves rustle sighs,
As nature mourns, a requiem replies.
Today is broken, so I will cry,
A fragile vessel, a sea of sighs,
A shattered dream, a world awry,
A solo voice, a universe denied.
Yet in the midst, a glimmer shines,
A ray of light, a beacon divine,
A chance to mend, a second chance,
A new beginning, a life to enhance.
Today is broken, but tomorrow waits,
A clean slate, a canvas unfurls,
A brush of hope, a palette bright,
A masterpiece, a new day’s delight.
So let the tears fall, let the heart weep,
For in the sorrow, a lesson keep,
That life’s a journey, twists and turns,
But strength and courage, our spirits learn.
Today is broken, so I will cry,
But with each tear, a wisdom nigh,
That though the world may shatter and fade,
Our inner strength, a rainbow’s shade.

Grief
In her heart,
a pain so deep,
Grief like a wound
she couldn’t keep,
Screaming out,
but no one heard,
The weight of sorrow,
like a bird,
Broken and shattered,
she found her way,
Love’s healing balm,
led her to a brighter day.Follow me on threads: https://www.threads.net/@vishal.dutia.poetry

Contradiction
I am drowning in an ocean, yet breathing on land
Lost in the desert, yet holding snow in my hand
Silent as a tomb, yet screaming out loud
Amidst the crowd, yet lost in the crowd
I am the beginning, and yet the end
A loyal companion, yet a treacherous friend
Living a dream, yet trapped in a nightmare
Free as a bird, yet caught in a snare
I am the hunter, yet the hunted as well
In the depths of heaven, yet the abyss of hell
Everything is clear, yet a blur in my mind
Leaving everything behind, yet nothing left to find.abyss, alive, beginning, being read, blur, breathing, broken, Clear, Companion, contradiction, crowd, dark, dead, Destruction, devil, divine, drowning, ecstatic, end, falling, finding, fine, finished, fragments, heaven, hunted, hunter, laughter, leaving, light, lost, mend, night, not moving, paradox, Path, poem, poems, Poetry, Running, saved, screaming, silent, soaring, sorrow, sparks, standing still, tears, torn apart, travelled, wronged

Heartless Magician
A girl broken in love, A heart that could not cope. The magician, so charming But soulless with no hope.
Deceived by his magic, She fell for his cruel game. The pain in her heart Was his ultimate gain.
Her heart shattered in pieces With no glue to join together The heartless magician was long gone Leaving her to suffer forever.

If Someone Else Comes Along
If someone else comes along, will I lose my chance,
To find true love and sweet romance?
Is love so fickle, that it can be swayed,
By the whims of fate, and the games it has played?
The heart can be fragile, and easily broken,
Leaving us lost, and without any token.
But even in pain, there’s a chance to heal,
And find a love, that’s truly real.
So let us not fear, what the future may hold,
For love is a journey, that’s meant to unfold.
And even if someone else comes along,
True love will endure, and remain ever strong.

The Puzzle of Love
Our pieces didn’t fit together,
No matter how we tried, we couldn’t tether.
Our hearts beat out of sync and time,
Our love was like a broken mime.
We thought we had all the pieces,
But they didn’t fit, our love decreases.
We tried to force and make it work,
But love can’t be forced, it’s just a quirk.
We were like a puzzle with missing parts,
Our love was doomed from the start.
We tried to mend and fix the cracks,
But our love was built on shaky tracks.
Sometimes love just doesn’t align,
It’s not a fault, it’s just a sign.
We must accept and let it be,
Our pieces will fit eventually.

All Hope Was Lost
Silent screams and shattered dreams, My mind in chaos, torn at the seams. Desperate for light in the endless night, Where hope is scarce and fears take flight.
Broken promises and hearts in pain, With nothing to lose, but everything to gain. In the darkness, I found a way to cope, And though all hope was lost, I found new hope.

Echoes of a Broken Heart
Echoes of a Broken Heart
Echoes of a broken heart, they linger on,
A haunting memory of a love that’s gone,
A heart once whole, now shattered apart,
Leaving nothing but echoes of a broken heart.The tears fall down like a summer rain,
As the pain of love lost sets in again,
The memories we shared now feel like a dream,
As we try to pick up the pieces, it seems.The echoes of a broken heart, they call out,
A painful reminder of what love’s all about,
A journey of joy and sometimes sorrow,
A love that could be gone by tomorrow.We’ll walk through the pain, and we’ll stand tall,
For the echoes of a broken heart, they won’t make us fall,
We’ll gather the pieces, and we’ll start anew,
And maybe find love that’s pure and true.The echoes of a broken heart, they may stay,
But we’ll learn to live with them day by day,
And maybe someday, the echoes will fade,
Leaving us with love that never strayed.

Cuddled in Sadness She Smiles
Cuddled in Sadness She Smiles
Cuddled in sadness she smiles,
Hiding her pain with practiced style.
Her heart may be broken, but her spirit’s strong,
And she won’t let her sorrow last for long.The tears may fall, but she wipes them away,
Putting on a brave face to face the day.
She knows that sadness is part of life,
But she won’t let it cause her strife.For every trial, there’s a lesson learned,
And every heartbreak, a bridge to be burned.
She’ll rise above the pain and strife,
And find the strength to live her life.So, cuddled in sadness she smiles,
Knowing that life’s challenges are trials.
And though her heart may ache for a while,
She’ll find the courage to once again smile.

Spread Your Light
Spread Your Light
Spread your light, let it shine bright,
In the darkness, be a guiding light.
Illuminate the world with your soul,
And let your spirit take control.Your light is a gift, a flame within,
A way to transcend and to begin.
It’s a beacon of hope, a ray of grace,
A reminder that love can take its place.Let your light shine on the broken and lost,
The ones who need it most.
For your light can heal and make them whole,
And bring them back from the edge of the hole.In a world full of chaos and strife,
Your light is the one thing that can bring new life.
It’s a force that can move mountains and seas,
A way to find peace when we’re brought to our knees.So spread your light, and let it be,
A way for all the world to see.
The beauty that lies within us all,
And the power of love to conquer all.

The Sorrowful Walls
The Sorrowful Walls
The walls stand tall, but oh so weak
In silence, they listen to the hearts that speak
Whispers of pain and sorrow they hear
As they hold their secrets, year after year
The cracks in the walls tell a story
Of a life that’s been broken and full of worry
The sorrowful walls, they bear the weight
Of a past that’s haunting, and a future that’s late.

My Heart is Frail #Poetry
My Heart is Frail
My heart is frail, so delicate and weak
It can break so easily, with just one single peak
My heart is fragile, so easily it can shatter
It can be so easily crushed, as if it doesn’t matter.My heart is frail, so easily it can break
It can be so easily shattered, with just one single mistake
My heart is fragile, so easily it can be hurt
It can be so easily damaged, as if it’s of no worth.My heart is frail, so easily it can be crushed
It can be so easily broken, with just one single rush
My heart is fragile, so easily it can be torn
It can be so easily destroyed, as if it was never born.My heart is frail, so easily it can be torn
It can be so easily destroyed, with just one single storm
My heart is fragile, so easily it can be lost
It can be so easily forgotten, as if it was never at all.© VishalDutia

I’m just so broken
I’m just so broken
I’m just so broken,
shattered like a mirror on the ground
trying to gather the pieces
but they slip through my fingers, all aroundI try to hide the pain
but it seeps through the cracks
and I’m left feeling exposed
like a wound that never mends or tracksBut in the darkness, I see a glimmer
a light that shines so bright
and I realize I’m not alone
that there’s hope in the midst of the nightSo I pick up the pieces, one by one
and I know I’ll make it through
because I’m not just broken,
I’m a survivor, and I’ll come out anew.

I’m So Broken
I’m So Broken
I’m so broken, shattered inside,
Pieces of my heart I cannot hide,
I try to mend but the cracks remain,
Pain and sorrow are my constant refrain.Each day a struggle to get by,
With tears in my eyes and a heavy sigh,
But I hold on, though it’s hard to cope,
For someday I’ll find a way to hope.

She Was Broken
She Was Broken
She was broken, shattered like glass
Her heart in pieces, her soul aghast
She tried to hide it, to keep it all inside
But the pain within her, she could not hideShe walked through life, with a heavy heart
Her spirit crushed, her world torn apart
But she held on, to a glimmer of hope
That someday, she would find a way to copeThrough the tears and the sorrow, she fought on
For deep within her, a strength had dawned
And though she was broken, she was not defeated
For her spirit was strong, and her will undefeated

Broken Reflections
Broken Reflections
Shards of glass, a shattered sight,
The mirror shows a broken light,
A fractured image, torn apart,
Reflecting pain from a wounded heart.The jagged pieces, a jigsaw puzzle,
A reflection now lost in the hustle,
Searching for a way to repair,
The broken reflections of what was once there.

I was fine #Poetry
I have been wondering lately,
why my thoughts aren’t serene,
why my mind lacks harmony,
why my words are void of ecstasy.
Then my inner peace whispered,
It is not so soothing in here,
with your heart’s broken pieces
piercing me non stop.
So, lets not pretend like
we are fine.
May be I was not fine.

Broken, Again
Stranded in darkness
by the hands of warmth
Wounded heart
sank so deep
Colder and colder
Alone and broken
Foolish self
never learned the lesson
Hoping for love
ascended from the hurt
Walked into the garden
where colors mask agony
Sweet little lies
Swooned the vulnerable
Fell for a rose
smiled so beautifully
Anxiety rushed in
held it tight
Stung by its thorns
cried for help
Cried all alone
colder and colder
Scars to the deep
alone and broken, again.
Vicious cycle of hope
Crippled the innocent
Again and again
nightmares and flowers
Again and again
Fancied and abandoned
Again and again
love and despair
Again and again
alone and broken.© VishalDutia

Endless Metaphors
I am a bottomless ocean
Keep digging in
See what uncharted breadths I hold
I’m a new species of lonely
A new species of tired
I’m a new species of run downI’m a brand new car with 300,000 miles on it
A newborn child that doesn’t scream when it cries
A kitten that doesn’t play with stringI’m a pretty broken thing

I will take them off the pages sometime
I think I’ll take them off the pages sometime.
Let me remember all the alphabets that came out of her mouth sometime.
What would be such a compulsion that we do not remember them.
I think I will send a gift and remind myself sometime.
I think I’ll take them off the pages sometime.© VishalDutia

Nothing to see here
Believing becomes a fairy tale
Every opinion is up for sale
Hiding memories of a broken home
I only see myself alone
Never knowing if I’ll be alright
Demons calling for me every night
Many sins are buried deep within
Years of sorrow settle in
Manipulating my reality
Anything is better than what I see
Severed many ties to good for me
Killed everything I tried to be
I no longer feel a thing
Sadness is the song I sing
Do not try to reach me anymore
Empty eyes forever more
Apathy becomes my new best friend
Trust is just a means to an end
Heed the words, don’t let me in.©VishalDutia

Betrayal Of The Heart
You shattered my hopes and dreams
in mere moments…
This leaving me without
any reason is what you want…
And makes you happy,
You were my one, my only true love.
Because I love you, I will
give up my one chance at happiness for you,
as I would have did anything for you.
You never let me say…Goodbye, or was it that day, I left to go home,
was to be my last memories of you…
My heart is broken and empty
and the best part of me and my soul,
is gone forever with you.
All I have left is questions
as my tears are gone, thus
too a part of my will to live.
I live not to love again,
You will be the only one ever for me.
But, to endure and suffer
through this memory of you, never to forget.
As you forgot your promises to me,
saying you truly loved me.
Yet, doesn’t true love never fail?
I don’t know where I go from here,
how to believe from thinking, our children to be,
now that will never be…
To a discarded piece of trash
that you feel no human decency too.
Only a complete betrayal of the heart.© VishalDutia

My Love Story
You were not a weather-fend
Still, I’ve followed your course
Then, we reached a dead-end
Where all feelings got hoarse© VishalDutia

Our Love, is done and dusted
I burnt the Memories, U gave Me.
I burnt your Love Letters Too.
Your Tears won’t ever, Cry for Me.
Tell Me…..What else must I Do?
I threw the Souvenirs, U gave Me.
I hardly ever take, your Name.
Our Love is done and Dusted.
As it put us both, to Shame.
Most of the Time, I keep Thinking.
Why not find, somebody New?
A Woman who Glows, like Moonlight
and is fresh, as the Morning Dew.
Once Her Eyes, find Me.
I shall write, My Love Story Again.
In the Arms of My Angel,
U won’t find, My Tears weep Again.© VishalDutia

Pieces
I spent years trying to pick up
The pieces of a puzzle
That would never feel complete
And when I got close
To her completion
Death was there
To congratulate meAnd after her passing
People continued to feel
Like problems and projects
Never getting too close
But somehow loving so much
Only to discard them
Like broken objectsAnd with you I found solace
In the illusion of completeness
Maybe I wouldn’t need to
Try so hard to bring happiness
To a man with little grievancesBut much like my past
I found myself splitting
Apart at the seams
In order to love someone
Who needed me to put together
All of their broken dreams©VishalDutia

Loneliness
At Nights, I take My Loneliness
and Add to it, a Tear or Two.
Throw in some Emptiness.
Mix them up, till I’m Blue.
Keep them under Cover.
Near to My Broken Dreams.
Then sail My Boat of Sorrow,
on Waves of the Silver Streams.
I could always feel it happening,
when Loneliness was Around.
My Feet which were once steady,
kept sinking in the Ground.© VishalDutia

Poem of Tears
I drown My Sorrows,
in My Poem of Tears
and paint Golden Memories,
We had over the Years.
Her Broken Promises,
haunt this Heart of Mine.
But My Love for Her,
can be read on every Line.© VishalDutia

A Broken Heart
When a Heart in Love gets Broken,
it’s pieces get scattered Around.
Tears keep falling Drop by Drop,
without a Word or Sound.
Diamonds are stones that Sparkle,
When U polish them all the More.
A Broken Heart becomes a bit Stronger,
When Love touches their Feet or Shore.
Black loves, the Sound of Silence.
White shines, when it is Night.
A Heart that’s Broken has Memories.
But their Love, is never in Sight.
As Moonlight shines on their windowsill,
A Broken Heart is brought back to Life.
But then old Memories, begin to creep in
and Dreams, are stabbed by a Knife.© VishalDutia

Deep In My Bones
I know you’re there.
Deep in my bones,
I can feel you.
You’re a written scripture,
On the ancient DNA,
Of my body of flesh, bones,
And impermanence.
It permeates,
Into any existence,
Where you and I,
Have hearts,
That beat.
I see now,
That I had to have it all,
Taken away.
Peeled back.
Removed.
So that all that was left,
Was me.
I never needed you.
You have an outdated version
Of me in your head.
And that’s fine.
But I can’t lie,
I’m pretty heartbroken,
That you’d leave me behind,
This time.
I thought you understood.
I guess…
I thought I knew you better.
I don’t want to keep you.
I don’t have a reason to.
Time and time again,
Your the constant,
That I always knew.
That simple kind of love,
That I never had to try to do.
But my trust in this truth…
This time – I handed you.
Of all the things I’ve had to let go,
You were the last.
And when you turned your back,
It was clear –
There really isn’t,
Anyone,
To trust here.
And I don’t mean that,
In some sad, bitter way.
I mean it to say…
I trust no one but me,
And what a beautiful scene.
My crystalline heart is,
No longer in hands that,
Bring me to places,
Too far from myself.
I am the only one that holds me.
This is how I’m meant to be.
More sure than I’ve ever been.
I’ve never felt more free.
But it’s a funny thing,
That even though,
you can’t be seen…
I can still feel you.
Deep in my bones.© VishalDutia
