Create your boundaries
and guard them well-
'Tis a battle of hearts,
and time will tell.

Fly solo for now,
if it is your wish
Leave me but once-
sealed with a kiss.

Seek me out never,
to repair what is lost
Harden your heart,
no matter the cost.

For woman I am,
in need of a mate,
In lack of manhood,
Comes need of escape.

My journey anew,
starts from within,
This battle of hearts,
Comes forth to an end.


 Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

I often wonder if there is any winner in a battle of hearts unless both parties concede.

The only way to find fulfillment is within  yourself first, then you will find the one who is meant for you....

Wonderful poem, Devina!

I'm sure that you will find Mr Right
But in the same breath what is a Mr Right
A nice poem you wrote there and I can see the line up is building.  
With you smile you have nothing to hide
Ps I also agree with Denise



 The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools.

devina, If this be true,
        my heart to you,
        many you'll find,
        one for all time.

Great poem. Parker
