When Love Becomes a Silent Ache

By

Do you ever feel those aching emotions—the kind that tear through you from the inside out? The kind that feel like a blade piercing your heart, yet you stand still, helpless?

When you try to walk away from someone who’s become your whole world—your soul—and yet, no matter how hard you try, you just can’t let go?

It’s painful when the person you love the most is the one who wounds you repeatedly. They ignore your presence, put everything else ahead of you, and still, you sit there in silence, waiting, hoping… for just a glimpse of care from them.

Somewhere deep inside, you know they don’t truly see you, don’t value you. But your heart—oh, your heart refuses to believe it. It clings to that fragile hope that maybe, just maybe, they still care. That one day, they’ll change. That your love will be enough.

You feel unworthy—like you’re not enough for them. But even so, you keep holding on. The hope keeps you breathing, but it also breaks you.

Each passing day, the weight of holding on chips away at your strength. Your soul gets tired. Yet you still wait. You still love. Even though they are distant, careless, emotionally absent—you stay.

How can someone survive feelings that both heal and destroy?

You ask them if they love you—not because you don’t know the answer, but because you need to hear something, anything, to quiet the storm inside. But the silence hurts more than a “no.” They leave you on read, unheard, unseen.

Can someone truly be unlovable to a heart that’s overflowing with love—when that very love is pure, unconditional, and aching just to be seen.

Ask yourself this: Does someone who can’t see your worth, truly deserve your love?

    I call that bitter-sweet emotions. I’ve never experienced this but I don’t think I’m wired to ‘stay’ where I’m not valued.

      I can truly feel your words. Sometimes, the heart holds on, even when it knows it should let go. Yet we wait, hoping for what may never come.

      But you’re right.

      It’s about knowing our worth and choosing ourselves, even when love feels like a silent ache.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

    J’aime votre façon d’écrire. Vous le faites avec sensibilité et style. Et vous dites des vérités irréfutables, parce que pour moi, dire la vérité, c’est dire des mots, une tentative de recréer un monde dont on revendique une certaine consolation. Des vérités qui frappent une réalité imposée, une aspiration à briser l’existence claustrophobe, à élargir les limites, à enrichir la vie de plus de vie.

    Je vous salue !

        Merci pour votre réponse, Saku. En tant que lecteur, j’ai toujours une “entente” sentimentale avec la littérature, alors quand je découvre des textes aussi beaux que les vôtres, j’éprouve une grande satisfaction. Comme vous le voyez, c’est un critère simple. Bien sûr, d’un autre côté, j’ai tendance à aimer les choses bien racontées plutôt que celles qui me sont racontées… Mais en l’occurrence, votre écriture réunit les deux qualités.
        Je vous souhaite une bonne semaine.

    I love your poetry dear poet. A little poem for you.

    ( Just a small ache, just heaviness upon my heart.

    I asked the Lake St. Clair. Where did our love go?

    Were our words, myth and tale?

    Now the small ache, a memory can find me near the Clinton River.

    A old man is making young man wishes.)
