A Broken Heart Left to Die Alone.

by Courageous Dreamer   Sep 20, 2008


Through these dark eyes that no longer smile,
I can see your pain, it's transparent; visible.
Every deep cut that bleeds from your heart,
reminds me that I am the one who caused this.
Tears flow down my cheeks, staining them...
with the pain that I have put you through recently.

Obscure mind encompassed with thoughts of you,
tangled together, producing one big knot so firm.
Resulting in pure disarray, impossible to unravel.
Resistive to anymore thoughts to enter this mess,
for it will only cause more trauma; the fog will only-
solidify, thoughts will entwine into a tighter knot.

Broken heart that bleeds, screams your sweet name.
Shattered to pieces, stomped on, left to lay on the floor-
along with yours silently cracking, demolished, bleeding.
Forlorn heart yearns for love a third time, yet knows that-
it may never love again, already crushing your heart twice.
Although it was not intentional, my heart deserves to die.

Put a flaming match to my heart, watch the colors fade.
Let the debris of my heart singe along with my darkened soul.
After a while, coals will be the only thing remaining on this-
cold ground, symbolizing a broken heart left to die alone.
All memories that it has experienced along the way-
will diminish within the coals and none will be remembered.

    Again , I don't understand your use of "-" .
    Forlorn heart yearns for love a third time, yet knows that-
    it may never love again, already crushing your heart twice.
    Or here .
    After a while, coals will be the only thing remaining on this-
    cold ground, symbolizing a broken heart left to die alone.

    Or here either . I think you should try different punctuation .

    Broken heart that bleeds, screams your sweet name.
    Shattered to pieces, stomped on, left to lay on the floor-
    And here it seems to be missing words ..

    Um , I don't know . Big words which work well in sad poems , but "-" these things throw off your flow alot . 4/5

    I'm touched by the way u care abt the heart u thought u broke, but wishing urs to be burnt is not helpful...cute u wanna punish urself to show ur sorry...

    After a while, coals will be the only thing remaining on this-
    cold ground, symbolizing a broken heart left to die alone.

    ^^i liked this part a lot, very deep, sad feelings i see...

    I'm sure ur heart deserves to live temps :)
    I somehow find the guilt u feel inside u(in the poem) is cute and innocent...
