My heart so tender

by chitra   Jan 8, 2005


I had a heart wounded with scars
I gave out my heart to many
Yet there was no response so positive
In my heart there are empty gouges
In my heart you’ll see stitches
In my heart there are wounds unhealed

I sat wondering why it had to be so
In my ecstasy
I saw how many people I had given my heart to
So many having received it dumped it somewhere
Some added this to theirs making it bigger
In their greed did not return a part I could use in filling up my gouges of my own heart.
Some received it, treasured for that period
That it was still new and fresh
Later disposing of it due to its becoming old and rotten

Some however returned a little piece of their kindness
In place of their hearts
Knowing this will never take the place of their hearts
In my heart
I met one that gave me her heart so dear
But in the wrong proportion
She forcefully collected it back and forgetting to return my own part she received left me wounded forever
I have been asking myself
If you were to give me your heart
No matter how little
I foresee it healing my wounds
Removing the stitches and giving it the healing of your touch
The veins and capillaries healed according
I know you are the sent to heart my mended heart.
Heal it
Cure it
Love it
And never leave it unattended to.
It was left bleeding before,
Please care for it, for it is so so so tender.
If you are not the one
Why then do I see you holding in your hands like a phantasm?
My heart bleeding without a solution to curing its wounds
I know for sure you were sent to heal me
Please do it and do it tenderly
Should incase you are not the one tell me
So I may maintain the already sustained wounds
Because my heart cannot take anymore of those unwanted, unloved scars which I have come to live with for years of pains and sorrow
If I am not for you please tell me
So I can run away with my tender heart
So I could love again with my tender HEART.

  • Not bad! It had substance in it. But i have a question! Why have you submitted with a single space between each line of the poem? It tends to make the poem look much longer than it actually is. And that will make some of the readers quit before reading. I look forward reading more of your poems. Hope i can read them sooner.
