What is heartache?

[starry123nights]

Is it a physical pain you feel in your heart? Do you have a sharp pain in your chest when your heart is aching? Is your chest tight when your heart is aching? A heartache is a feeling that begins in your heart. But it slowly moves to your throat and you begin to feel a knot when you try to swallow. Your eyes whell up and you try and fight the tears from falling, but you can't. The tears fall and your heart aches and you can't breathe. You want something to make it go away. Just one thing so you can feel better about what has taken you to a low point you wouldn't wish on anyone. You know, I have felt this many times in my life. From men in my life. To losing someone I loved more then myself. To leaving my kids. Nothing tugs stronger at the heart strings then losing your kids and letting go. I know. You feel it when someone hurts your child because you know their heart hurts and you hurt for them. When you lose someone you love. Your heart aches many times for what you no longer have. You long to feel that person's love for you just one more time. Often when someone you love hurts you. You feel this kind of heartache. Where there is heartache, there is love. Because if you did not love these people so intensily they wouldn't be able to hurt your heart. I guess you can't have one without the other. Mom, shit......I wish you were here. Only you could make the heartache go away. I understand the love you felt for me. I miss it tremendously.

As I can remember, it's like having the emptiest feeling in the world. A complete loss of faith in anything and everybody. Devastation that no other person can even begin to understand or imagine and then depression sets in.

The only way out, is to accept what you can not control and move on. Remember the fond memories and let the rest be.

I believe heartache is getting robbed blind of something that you love and cherish the most in your life...another person...and not knowing what might have been if you had not been robbed blind...Amanda, baby, please don't go, please don't leave me...I know that I have broke your heart, but please baby...just don't leave me here....

I get heartache when my stomach acid burns my throat - oh wait, that heartburn.

It really is the bottm. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. I might throw kerosene on them and throw a match. I have had this feeling of heartache since losing my mother 5 years ago. It's like a wound that heals, but the scar is always there.

I am sorry to hear about your mother starry. Although i do not believe in god i do believe in people change things even if its not a lot. When i look around my house or at the things i have here i see all of my family, perhaps this will help you.

When i was little my grandmother used to talk to her plants i thought she was nuts. She used to tell me that when she talked to a particular plant it would change its color to let her know it appreicated the companionship. Like i said i thought she was crazy. Anyway she died a few months later and i missed her so much i went out and bought a plant like the one she used to talk to. I would cry alot missing her and started to talk to the plant about her and at first nothing seemed to happen, then one day i started just talking to it like i did to her about school or my day or whatever. I am not sure what kind of plant it was i am thinking a violet or something from that family. Anyway long story short i talked to this plant off and on for a year, and one day i happened to look and instead of it being a reddish purple it suddenly seemed to be a royal blueish purple ( her favorite color) anyway i know it probably sounds corny but now when i look around my house i see all kinds of things that remind me of my family from little things to big things. Maybe if you look around and for something that reminds you of your mom you'll know that her spirit is still near you and hopefully it will comfort you.:)

Your right twisted. I have most of mom's stuff. I no longer get sad from looking at them. It actually brings me joy now. It's just when you have major bullshit in your life, there isn't nothing like your mama. And for me that sucks.

I don't know, the last time I said "things can only get better", they got a fuck of a lot worse.
