of Broken hearts and Broken Dreams

by : whencrissytalkstheylisten
I lost track of the times I cried because of a Love that was blown by the wind. The number of times when my friends squeal in pain due to a crop of disappointment that only remains a stream of rhythmic memory and nothing more. Sometimes, I wonder, where do broken hearts go?
This day, I would like to soothe those who lost love, those who have let go of their most profound dreams, those who enveloped themselves with unrequited love, and those who still cast a glance of their Ideal Man at a far distance not knowing whether there is a tiny possibility that one day, Mr. Ideal Man will fairly glance back at them.
We all have experienced the thrills and frills of being in love. We all somehow at one point in our lives threaded the same path once. The path leaded us to different directions, yet, in some ways, we have been a part of that long winding road. I would like to remind those people who despised the thought of falling in love again; those who lost faith in love, those who prayed constantly that there will never be 14th of February in the calendar, and those who wish red roses would eventually turn into black and loose its magical scent, that it is never too late to get out of the pit you burrow yourself into, live and love again.
Being shattered and being stuck in embracing the past, doesn’t entirely mean that you will still sulk over the whole thing over and over again. The wound will keep on bleeding until you allow it to. You will never know that there remains a tiny hope right outside of your window, if you’ll just keep on burrowing yourself under your bed. A love’s lost can sometimes took the breath out of us, but, it won’t entirely mean that we’ll die after the moment they bid goodbye.
Unrequited love, unreciprocated and not a two way street kind of relationship, the kind of love that is always depicted in the movies, the characters we can always see ourselves into. This is the kind of relationship that only one person selfishly gives him/herself and the other one openly just receives. I wanted to reach out for those women who just look at their Ideal Man from afar, waiting for the perfect timing that he’ll soon notice you; it is never too late to turn away your glance from that guy, and look somewhere else. Sometimes, no matter how hard we try, if that person never realizes that someone loves him from a distant, and then there will be no happy ending for that silent gaze of yours. Quit gawking, broaden your viewpoint and instead notice those who stole you glances.
When a relationship ends and fails, there are certain factors why it has to end in the first place. Nevertheless, don’t drown yourself into the situation where you face and put all the blame to no one, but you. It is the most foolish way to begin your healing process with. When a relationship ended, remember that it is never your fault alone, as it always takes two to tango.
And for those who despise fully hates celebrating Valentine’ day, because it will only bring back the memories of the past, you must be reminded one more time, that Valentine’s day is just like the other days in the calendar. Nothing is exactly extraordinary out of it. You don’t have to sulk and curse the day, after all, it is the same day as the 13th and 15th.
And now I realized broken hearts don’t really exist. For deep within us, our heart’s whole no matter how shattered we think it would be when we lost love. It radiates and continues to pulsate no matter how painful the goodbye was. And there are no broken hearts, really only broken dreams.
