Inside of This Heart

by Twisted Heart   Aug 24, 2007


Inside of this heart of a woman
are battle scars covered in tears
among all the pain
the heartache remains
fermented from so many years

The thumping so shallow lay wasted
on love that was tarnished and bruised
inside of the soul
so distant and cold
is a heart that was ripped clean in two

The night brings a lonely star watching
my movements each one that I make
the flicker of light
has gone from my eyes
and resounds in each piece as it breaks

Mere mortal am I laying silent
no sound escapes clear from within
as memories peak
in my dreams as I sleep
tears fall from my heart once again

    Oh Auntie this was such a sad piece.

    Mere mortal am I laying silent
    no sound escapes clear from within
    as memories peak
    in my dreams as I sleep
    tears fall from my heart once again

    The ending was *wipes tear* so heart touchingly sad.
    Take care Auntie

    It's an awesome poem! I loved the style. There was just one part I think was worded incorrectly.

    the flicker of light
    has gone from my eyes
    and resounds in each piece as it breaks

    Wouldn't it be reflects...instead of...resounds? because light reflects right? I could be wrong, but it was the only thing off to me in the whole piece. Other than that I loved it a 100%!!!

    Wow, another very powerful poem from you Dear. I loved this, you painted a picture in my head and I could feel the pain coming off from your words throughout this piece. I loved this.

    "Inside of this heart of a woman
    are battle scars covered in tears"

    ^^ I LOVED those lines, the imagery was fantastic in those two alone.
