Heartbreak

The most bitter, most acrimonious feeling in the World would be that of a heartbreak.

"You feel as though the entire World is tumbling down on you. You can barely contain the weight of the World, and the background fades into oblivion. All the warmth and incandescence in your heart are replaced by a frigid climate of despair and self-recrimination. You feel as though life has lost its meaning and purpose, and the place which once housed your bliss and joy is now marked by a conspicuous dearth of such emotions. The footsteps get heavier, as you force yourself to trudge on a tortuous, windy path towards seemingly nowhere. Indeed, having all the love breathed out of one's life is like losing one's life compass - you get disoriented and confused, yet you meander on. The halcyon days are now shattered and replaced by a shambles of decadence and forlornness. Solitude and melancholy creeps up to you, stealing whatever happy emotions that still remain - not much, though. Consequently you lapse into a sense of self delusion, rueing on "Happier days" and instantly rejecting the events of reality, a consequence of the immense pain and hurt one could feel. Heartbreak, is one of the most wretched and lugubrious emotion one can ever go through. It is not like the grieving pain of losing a loved one, or the gloom of failing in one's career. Heartbreak is quite in a league of its own - it rips one's heart to pieces like rabid, feral beasts, leaving nothing behind but a trail of regret, dread and malaise. One is consumed by insufferable anguish and agony, and tormented by a merciless dose of misery. No wonder some says love is a devil in disguse; it can bring the greatest happiness, but at the same time, it can also demolish a person in a one single, rutheless swipe. Such are the travails of a heartbreak."
