Dear Diary
Heart's Struggle: A Poetic Journey Through Love's Turmoil
Lyrics
(Dear diary, it's the first of March 2011 and I made it through another day. I actually smiled. I know you wanna hear that I feel better, but the thing is, nothing's changed.)
Expressing surviving another day, but despite a smile, there's no improvement in emotional state.
I see the light but I don't feel the sun
Perceiving positive things (light) but not feeling the associated joy or warmth (sun).
I hear the rain but it doesn't sound the same
Hearing rain, but it lacks its usual comforting or calming effect.
When I breathe the air I can taste his name
Associating the taste of someone's name with the air breathed.
These words I write in you from my heart bleeding true
Conveying genuine emotions and experiences from the heart through writing.
Dear diary, how can this be?
Puzzled by the contradiction between promised love and the current emotional turmoil.
The promise of his words, his love to rescue me
Questioning the fulfillment of promised love in rescuing from heartbreak.
Dear diary, help me understand
Seeking understanding from the diary regarding persistent heartbreak.
My heart is still breaking, cos he's just not for the taking, dear diary
Expressing ongoing heartbreak as the person is seemingly unavailable or unattainable.
I see the night but I don't fall asleep
Observing the night but struggling to find peace in sleep.
I hear my heart but it doesn't beat the same
Hearing one's heartbeat, but it lacks the familiar rhythm or resonance.
When I try to pray, I just shout his name
Unable to find solace in prayer, shouting the name of the person.
These words I write in you from my heart bleeding true
Continuing to express heartfelt emotions through diary writing.
Dear diary, how can this be?
Reiterating confusion about unfulfilled promises of love and rescue.
The promise of his words, his love to rescue me
Questioning the reliability of the person's words in bringing love and rescue.
Dear diary, help me understand
Appealing to the diary for assistance in comprehending persistent heartbreak.
My heart is still breaking, cos he's just not for the taking, dear diary
Emphasizing the ongoing heartbreak due to the unattainability of the person.
How can this be, what is happening to me?
Expressing confusion and a desire for understanding about the current emotional state.
I just wanna hold his hand cos he's no ordinary man
Expressing a strong desire to be close to the person who is considered extraordinary.
Dear diary, how can this be?
Reiterating confusion regarding unfulfilled promises of love and rescue.
The promise of his words, his love to rescue me
Questioning the reliability of the person's words in bringing love and rescue.
Dear diary, help me understand
Seeking assistance from the diary to understand ongoing heartbreak.
My heart is still breaking, cos he's just not for the taking
Emphasizing persistent heartbreak due to the unattainability of the person.
(I'm gonna try and get some sleep now, I'll talk to you tomorrow)
Expressing intention to get some sleep and promising to continue the conversation with the diary tomorrow.
Dear diary
Concluding the diary entry with a farewell until the next day.
