let's talk about heartbreak

have you ever suffered heartbreak yourself? which books or poems do you relate to on the subject?

for me, Great Expectations is a classic. as I understand Dickens, I see that this was kind of his piece of middle-aged heartbreak/divorce writing to a certain extent, and I've noticed that people who read it too young or before their first major breakup related to it less

First Love by Turgenev is a beautiful little encapsulation of the travails of young love and heartbreak, La Vita Nuova by Dante is basically only about the author's lost love for Beatrice, and its highs are magnificent

how fares your broken literary heart?

>you will never be loved so your heart will never be broken

Muy bien!

It is too bad that the highs in Paradiso are so damn boring though.

This poem gets me. Years passed since I last saw her, and I'm okay now, but every time I read it I can feel it. The image of her face, the scent of her hair, remembering the first time I saw her and fell completely in love like never before. I can actually see me there, standing in front of the next woman that's going to make me feel like I know her since time immemorial, smiling and trying not to think of her, not to let the memories steal the moment. But they will.
The good thing is, I'm young and I'm going to meet someone that makes me feel that way, right anon?


When First We Faced, And Touching Showed
Philip Larkin

When first we faced, and touching showed
How well we knew the early moves,
Behind the moonlight and the frost,
The excitement and the gratitude,
There stood how much our meeting owed
To other meetings, other loves.

The decades of a different life
That opened past your inch-close eyes
Belonged to others, lavished, lost;
Nor could I hold you hard enough
To call my years of hunger-strife
Back for your mouth to colonise.

Admitted: and the pain is real.
But when did love not try to change
The world back to itself—no cost,
No past, no people else at all—
Only what meeting made us feel,
So new, and gentle-sharp, and strange?

Have Mercy by The Gaslight Anthem

it's a song but the lyrics are poetry, you snobs

Come pick me up from the night
From the hands of the dark
From the things I didn't know
That would simply break your heart
There were years in this room
Lined and shattered in the glass
Held it up to myself til I just couldn't stand

So don't ask me where I've been
Cause you don't want to know
And don't ask me who I'm seeing
No, you don't want to know
And don't come around me here
When I need you the most
Leave it alone

Leave a little room for the holy ghost

And come take me out of the light
I don't feel you anymore
I came apart from myself
From the crosses you wore
And the things in my soul
Once my comfort and friend
I came to the reasons
And I lost you again

So don't ask me where I've been
Cause you don't want to know
And don't ask me who I'm seeing
No, you don't want to know
And don't come around me here
When I need you the most
Leave it alone

Leave a little room for the holy ghost

Now your pretty horses run wild and free
You can go and find a lover, baby better than me
Talking snow for days with your friends in LA
Have mercy

Now your pretty horses run wild and free
You can go and find a lover, baby better than me
Talking snow for days with your friends in LA
Have mercy, have mercy

Nothing helps when it happens to you. No book in the world. If you want catharsis read cheap erotica.

However, Flaubert and Maugham come close.

I think Candide would make the hardest man laugh at his own pitiful broken heart
