Deja Vu

It's amazing how someone can break your heart but you still love them with every broken piece of it.

A year later on the very same day
She lies on her familiar wet pillow
Swallowing her sobs and her ever-growing pain
Pitying the gloomy face in the mirror 
As she watches the sun coming out...
Sleep, still an unfamiliar luxury.

A year later on the very same day
She opens her red eyes to a shattered heart
Pleading God to free her soul
From her own treacherous tangled brain
Realizing that no one really cares...
Loneliness, still an old friend.

A year later on the very same day
She finally closes her sad eyes 
Congratulating herself on making it
Through yet another devastating day
Bottling up all her overwhelming thoughts again...
Peace of mind, still a stranger.

A year later on the very same day,
Her heart, still broken.

Extreme sadness, melancholy runs throughout your poem. You have penned down a nice piece. This happens many times. You fall for someone and your heart gets broken, but you continue to love the person with all your soul- you do not wish to let the person go, you always hope that the things might just turn your way one day.
I like the refrain of the line "A year later on the very same day". It also tells how truly you love the person and how long you can wait for him.
Good one. Keep writing.

A sad and touching poem. It is difficult to get over heartbreaks and you have described the situation very well. A very fine use of words.

This is a familiar feeling...years going by loving the same person...again and again...and your soul keeps dying...yet you continue.
Scared that if you would let him go...then even that hope that someday he will come back would disappear...
That hope is all that you hold onto.The very reason that you are still wiling to live through each painfully horrible day...
Your words touched my heart...i hope everything will work out :)

You create visions of sadness and the emotion of regret. Real love lost is a permanent part of us. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
