Heart Break Poem by Nikhil Chandwani

I don't understand how to begin,
how to stop my life from this slow death.
I tried to conceal it, to make believe
that I'm okay. But the more I am deprived of it,
the more it harms me anyway.
How effortlessly she let go off,
how fast she changed. While here
I'm feeling hurt, she chose to hurt.
I pleaded her to change,
to be more responsive and sensitive of my emotions.
But she chose to be who she is. Because I love her,
it didn't matter. Instead of complaining,
I chose to believe it.
Now I'm here all alone,
asking myself where I went south.
I've been sympathetic to all her shortcomings,
trying to believe that's how she is.
But still here I am, hurting and breaking.
I want to let go and move on,
but still I'm waiting and wondering
if she might understand.
Every night I want my next day without heavy feelings,
crossing my fingers that
the whole thing is unreal.
This night is finishing
and so is our heartbreaking story;
now I'm here writing this open letter to my life.
One day you will be all right,
and all this will just be one more tale.
