Blackest Hearts

by most perfect lie   Oct 23, 2006


Blackest hearts
Joined together in death

The blackened blood scattered on the wall
The deep crimson staining the floors
All from a black heart left to die
Stabbed a thousand times
Left to die
Left to die
In the changing blood

A blood always leaving
A body always dying
A soul to live in death
The death of life
The death of love
The deaths of souls

Hollow souls torn out at first sight
Forever to be under torture
From a single breath a single step
Living is the hardest thing to do
Dying is even harder

Aching for the freedom that will never come
Wishing for our own saviour
Leaving our hearts open for them
As we are torn apart
Day after day
Silently begging to be saved
Never saying a word
Fear
What if we are weak in your eyes?

    I really like this poem. I'm not sure exactly what you were tryin' to put out by it, as it seems a very subtle meaning with very abstract words. But telling by the end, to me personally, it seemed as if you were speaking aloud your thoughts to a higher being, or atleast a being of which you think you belong to. God? Well, not throught he beginning I wouldn't quite say that.But... I don't know. I think I have to read that again. Anyway,the only problem I found in it was that you need to get rid of the e on the end of 'breathe':

    From a single breathe...

    otherwise it's breathing, rather than singular breath. Again, you showed your strengths in repitition, Good :)
