Heartburn Poem by Sophy Iminzah

Heartburn

Rating: 4.5


He left me behind, warningless
Did he think I was feelingless?
He took my heart and broke
Whatever i believed was mock

It was he who put it on fire
Flames consumed my heart's desire
It took seconds of heart burn
I watched him turn and run

A fire that destroyed everything
I can't feel traces of anything
A heart that is no longer a heart
Grey ashes in the confines of my gut

My heart usedto be my all
All I am left with now is a hole
My love, joy, care is all gone
Even pain -so i can't mourn

To be made heartless was so unjust
Since I am heartless, will that last?
To love from the heart I was a doer
Past memory as ashes drain into sewer...

Heart wrenched feelings of pain and melancholy so poignantly described in the poem that readers too feel some pain in their heart after reading it. Well done, poet Sophy, loved to read your poem and feel the thoughts of pain you described.
