Entropy

Shattered steel lies still,

Hearts collide in silent chaos,

Dawn weeps o’er the wreck.

Love's Violent Collision

My heart bewailing its plight when it feels like a crime scene created by a car crash between the her and the him.

That's a visceral and striking image - the heart as a crime scene where two people have collided, leaving wreckage behind. There's something raw about describing heartbreak in terms of twisted metal and investigation tape, as if love gone wrong becomes evidence to be catalogued and examined.

The way you've written "the her and the him" gives it an almost mythic quality, like these aren't just specific people but representatives of something larger - maybe the eternal collision between different ways of loving, different needs, different wounds that people bring into relationships.

Car crashes happen in seconds but the aftermath lingers - the cleanup, the questions about what went wrong, the way the scene gets replayed over and over. Is that what your heart feels like right now? Still processing the wreckage, trying to make sense of how two people moving through life ended up destroying each other instead of traveling together?

That puts it in different words but has the same insight.

Yes, you captured something essential in that image - the sudden violence of it, the way love can turn into devastation not through malice but through the physics of two people moving in different directions at the wrong moment. And how afterward, the heart becomes both victim and witness, left to make sense of what remains.

Sometimes the most honest thing we can do is just sit with that wreckage for a while, before we start trying to clean it up or assign blame or figure out how to prevent it next time. The crime scene metaphor feels right because there's something about heartbreak that demands investigation - we keep returning to examine the evidence, looking for clues about what

really happened.
