A Beating Heart

by xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex   Oct 11, 2006


Thump, thump; throb throb;
Hold it close to your chest.
Pulsing, pulsing; dripping, dripping
Fall into a lasting rest.

Seeping through your hand,
A blood so deep, a blood so bland.
Squeeze tightly to what you possess,
Something so precious, something to bless.

Bleed, bleed, thrash, thrash;
Beating to the sound of the wind.
Whisper, whisper; Faster, faster;
Crying out to comfort him.

Breathe a soft tuft of breath,
Thinking of forbidding, thinking of death.
Upon a heart so cold and lone,
Triggering this heart, triggering this home.

Hush, hush; Closer, closer;
Caress the heart within your hand.
Attempt, attempt; Harder, harder;
Fall to your knees; don't try to stand.

    You have talent. This poem is incredible. I love how you have the repeating lines they add so much to the poem... im not sure what but it wouldn't be the same without it. Keep writing, i look forward to more--- 5/5
