Where Do Broken Hearts Go?

4:15 AM by Subtle_Hints · 1 comments


Giving your heart to someone is like taking a leap of faith. Never would you be so vulnerable yet so strong in your entire life. It’s terrifying and exciting. You believe in everything that you and that someone stand for. You feel that as long as its you and him/her against the world, then you’d be able to conquer all. But what happens when that love fails, when love simply was not enough? Where do broken hearts go?

I have just realized that you could never make someone promise you or prove to you that they will never leave you; that their love would be for always. Because maybe at that time when you asked them to: they meant it in every way and that they believed in it too. But sometimes, there comes a time when what you had is forgotten because of the trials you both had gone through, promises doesn’t mean a thing anymore, and you’re left with nothing but memories and nothing solid to hold on to.

The thing about a heart breaking is that it feels like you’ve just been hit by a bus, dragged by a train, exploded with a bomb, and yet no one knows it, no one hears it but you. They might see the tears running down your cheeks, and hear your screams of pain, but they would never understand the deepest pain and deepest sorrow that only you could experience. You would wish to just rip out your heart, and toss it somewhere so that you could never feel that pain again, but sadly, you could never do that.

I would like to say, that time heals all wounds, and maybe it does. But there would always be scars, and you would never be the same again. You would never love the same and you would never trust the same. So where do broken hearts go? They go back to you, though broken and shattered, you could take the pieces back one by one. All you have to do is figure out where to start. But if you’re lucky, your broken heart goes back to the one you truly love. For if they are still willing to keep your heart, then they are the only once who could fix it almost as good as new… almost.

Maybe- Just Maybe, I Want To Be Cinderella

9:20 AM by Subtle_Hints · 0 comments



 



I'm not really such a big fan of Cinderella. Among all Disney Princesses, she's definitely not high on my list of favorite characters. But today at exactly 1:04 am (Philippine time), I realized that maybe, just maybe, I want to be Cinderella. I want to have one magical night. One night where I can be whoever I want to be. One night that would last me a lifetime. One dance, one encounter, with my one true love.
I can list the reasons why I'm not a big fan of Cinderella, but sometimes, hers is  a story that every other girl dreams about. Freedom to be whoever you are. Courage to go and make your dreams come true. A chance encounter that can alter ones life.

We all want to be held by the arms of the prince we've dreamed about. To look deep into their eyes and realized that they too have been waiting to have this dance with us. And yet, even when the clock strikes twelve and we ran away from them, they chase after us, not wanting to let us go.


So no matter how much I deny it, deep in my heart there is a little girl that wants her Cinderella story too.


"She believed in dreams, all right, but she also believed in doing something about them.   When Prince Charming didn't come along, she went over to the palace and got him."   
  Walt Disney, speaking of Cinderella in 1949."
