A Thousand Pieces.

My heart feels like it’s not whole.
Like it’s not one.
I feel like my heart has broken into several small pieces.
Not because I got hurt.
Not because I someone I love betrayed me.

It broke like how friends naturally drift apart.
Slowly and steadily. But definitely.
I don’t know what’s wrong.
But something’s wrong.

How do I join the pieces back together?

It’s not that my life is missing a piece of the puzzle.
It’s just that there are a lot of pieces and it’s really difficult to complete the puzzle.

    I’m not crazy about “liking” this type of write – one of hurt – but it communicates and I can feel the betrayal. This is well written – and your last two lines sum things up nicely. I’m sorry for this kind of pain – but I understand.

      Thanks, Marcus. 🙂
      I’m not betrayed or anything, I’m just kinda lost. And I don’t even want to find my way. You know.. Something like that.

      I’m fine Mon! I’ve been a really selfish person this whole month – not really following any of my blogger friends’ posts, and all. And I’m not sure whether I’m going to be much active in future either! :/

      How are you doing, Mon?

      1. I am fine at this moment. It’s good to take a blogging break, unlike being addicted like me xD

        Hahaha.. No! It’s not nice to dissappear suddenly when you’ve been really active all the time! God knows why, I just don’t find the time to blog! And I feel really guilty about posting something and not reading anyone else’s post. :/

    Very nice, very sad too, Shubhada. I like that it is subtle without too much drama 🙂 Still, sad thoughts…

      I’m okay, really. Writing makes me feel better. So after writing this I did feel like a huge burden has been lifted off my shoulders. 🙂

        Yes, writing does that sometimes. But you know what struck me just now? That it must be used as a weapon then, not as a crutch.. When you have powerful emotions within you, then by all means explode. It could end up creating something beautiful and eternal 🙂

        Not being facetious or pompous, just thinking aloud 🙂

      I’m okay. Kind of. 😛
      I feel like I’m not doing anything worthwhile. And I don’t know WHAT I should do to make my life better. To make it fuller. You know? I’ve joined painting classes, hoping that’ll it’ll make me happy. Let’s see how things work out!

      You’re so caring, A! I like you. ❤❤

      1. Okay. I get what you are trying to say. Kind of. I was going through that phase where everything felt wrong;incomplete. Now,it’s much better. But yeah. I kinda get it.*Nods*
        I still feel like I am wasting my life,doing nothing. At all.:/
        And I am. I am really not doing anything to make my life something worth living for.
        I am doing into the deep end aren’t I?*sighs again*
        Let’s hope the painting classes give you the happiness that’s been missing. The incompleteness feels completed.
        Annnnnd,I am really not all that awesome! *sheepish expression*
        But I like you,too. And I don’t say that all that often. So you’re lucky.*winks*💋❤

        Hahahaha! C’mon, I’ve read a lot of your comments where you say you love or like someone! 😛

        And yes, I feel it too.. That I’m wasting my time doing nothing. :\
        If I’m not wrong you’re a med student? That’s something. I’m doing my bachelor in economics which has no value whatsoever. I’ll have to do MA later. So BA is just a step. But still, BA feels like nothing.
