Stray Heart

by that Dude   Jun 5, 2009


Come with me, it will be okay
I know your heart has gone astray.
I will always hold you tight,
in your darkness & your fright.
I want to know all about you,
Remember - I have paid my dues.
When the pain is too much & you just want to die,
I understand why you do not cry.
When the pain & the hurt is too much to bear,
I see your cuts - your soul laid bare.
I know that your pain goes down to the bone,
but remember - you are not on this journey alone.

    That was a wonderfully written poem, the wording and emotions were deep and made the reader become immersed in the flow of the feelings. Short, good and well felt

    "Come with me, it will be okay
    I know your heart has gone astray."

    Excellent reassuring opening that is a great opening for the reader to read.

    "I will always hold you tight,
    in your darkness & your fright."

    "&" should be "and".

    "I want to know all about you,
    Remember - I have paid my dues.
    When the pain is too much & you just want to die,
    I understand why you do not cry."

    Again "&" should be "and". Good emotions expressed here.

    "When the pain & the hurt is too much to bear,
    I see your cuts - your soul laid bare.
    I know that your pain goes down to the bone,
    but remember - you are not on this journey alone. "

    This is so nice of you, you are there for that person and will guide them through life, be their friend through it all. Nicely said and well-penned.

    5/5 from me, take care and God Bless!
