Stitches

by Catty   Jul 22, 2005


Stitch up my heart that lay here shattered and bruised,
As I watch from afar, lost and confused,
Hoping and praying that this ins’t real,
As I try to make sense of what I now feel,
This sharp pain suddenly lingers on inside,
My cheeks permanently stained from the tears I’ve cried,
Your smile now feels like a dagger to the heart,
The one you violently ripped apart,
Her presence is the knife in my aching back,
As she stands there, possessing all the qualities I lack,
And when she kisses you, she’s slowly killing me,
Cutting me open for others to see,
So stitch up my heart that lay here shattered and bruised, as I watch from afar, lost and confused.

    That was truly amazing. The BEST poem I've read so far on this site, no lie. Wow. I'm stunned at the skill... It was so simple yet powerful, and the rhymes were flawless. Fantastic, wow. More than full points.

    Beautiful and depressing go hand in hand for this piece. This one struck a chord in me, because I'm going through the same thing with a guy I liked (and still do). So I know how you feel. Your structure is better in this poem and I like your rhyme schemes and the level of intense pain you put into the work. Great job.

    I really liked this one. The only thing I would have to say is to clean it up a little, i.e. you wrote ins’t instead of isn't, and used commas for everything. Great job on rhyming, it's not easy.
