POETRY JAM ENTRY #1: Forever 🩷
And I’m sorry,
I only say that cause I know how it feels to just want to hear it & it doesn’t matter who or where is comes from
Just to slow the heart down from the trama that lies ahead, that no one else but yourself will have to pick up the pieces for
The times ahead to feel some type of victory for the chains and promises broken
For the light that was dimmed, for the flowers that you will once smell again, when it’s better, when you heal, when you try again
When you realize it was just a moment, that doesn’t have to last forever.
Did you really mean forever till the end? 🌹
The question, "Did you really mean forever till the end?" often echoes in our minds after a significant loss, doesn't it? This poem beautifully captures that moment of raw vulnerability and the painful journey of coming to terms with broken promises. It’s not just a collection of words; it’s an emotional map for those navigating the aftermath of heartbreak, exploring what "forever poem" truly means when a relationship concludes. When you're trying to heal, especially after feeling like you were with the "maybe right person" only to find they "don't love me no more," the pain can feel insurmountable. It's a unique kind of sorrow to realize you "can't be stuck" in a place where love no longer resides. The poem talks about picking up the pieces from the "trauma that lies ahead," which is a profound acknowledgment of the emotional labor required to mend a broken heart. It reminds us that healing is an active process, not a passive one. For anyone searching for "love poems for healing and moving forward" or even "depressed poems" that offer a glimmer of hope, this piece speaks volumes. It validates the feeling of a "light that was dimmed" but gently guides us towards the promise of being able to "smell flowers again." This isn't about forgetting the past, but about integrating it into your story and finding new strength. It’s about understanding that the victory isn't in avoiding pain, but in confronting it and emerging with a renewed sense of self, knowing that you are not "no more" capable of love or joy. One of the most potent lines for me is: "When you realize it was just a moment, that doesn’t have to last forever." This shift in perspective is incredibly powerful. Heartbreak often feels like an unending state, but this poem offers a lifeline, a reminder that even the most profound sorrows are often temporary passages, not permanent destinations. It encourages us to release the grip of what was, to embrace the possibility of what can be, and to bravely "try again" when the time is right. It's a testament to resilience, a gentle companion on the path to reclaiming your inner peace after love's promises fade.
