So that I can say that when using the present participle you must use the present form. (breaking, not broking, which isn't ever used in English in this meaning.)

So it may have broken your heart to give the win away
In fact, since you say it was, I can say that it was breaking your heart to do so.

But I hope it's mended now, if only for a little while.
