A Weak Heart.
By: Paula .C.

My life was a black nothingness
I was bound in the dark with no way out.
When suddenly a light pierced the abyss,
and I could see true happiness...

I began to drink of your brilliance greedily..
and then you disappeared.
Once again sorrow consumed.
Days, Weeks, Months passed
life struggle getting worse.
And still no sign of the light I
had become addicted too...

Time passed, and I died a little more with each
second; torn, and abused I was about to close my
eyes to all the senseless hate when once more
I was blinded...

Blinded by your smile, your warm eyes, the sound of the voice I began to love.
And my heart swelled, strength returned to my battered limbs,
and I began to live and breath joy...

With the confidence I gained, I found the strength to leave...
to cut myself free of the darkness and run from it's slithering grasp...
And I vowed I would never fall back, that i wouldn't give another the power to break me down...

Life was near perfect...
but then my sun once more disappeared, this time of his own choice, his beautiful lips uttering heart breaking words...
Saying my grass was not green enough and choosing too no longer shine on my world.

I cried, once more my heart was in pain, I had given someone the power when I said I would not...
I was weak.
But I did not fall back into darkness, no what followed his confession was a gloom...

My world was Grey, my bruised heart once more loving, but not good enough for the affection of another...
and all I could do was thank him, thank him for giving me the strength to release myself from a bad relationship, and wait.
For a time, when my grass being less mature wouldn't matter so much....

Once Again I would like to thank Lanna for the tittle.

    I really liked this poem. The wording was great. It was a sad one and it was a good read. I thought that the format could be better. Igave this poem a 5/5.

    Try making the lines close to the same length. If you have to break a line down in to 2.
