Can you see my bleeding heart
As my tears fall down like rain
Stop this craziness right now
And put an end to all this pain

I live behind a mask of fear
So my daughter cannot see
How much this horrid war
Is really affecting me

Cast these images from my mind
Please help me find the sun
As I struggle with my fears
While my heart becomes undone

A situation of great sorrow
Let us not give in to hate
For there are far too many bodies
Piling up at heaven's gate

We must strive for peace and harmony
As we pray to heaven above
Together we can make a difference
We must not lose sight of love

* * * *

"One lone rose in a sea
of waste and war
out-blooms a feast of
common flowers showing
their finest faces in heaven."




I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
- Shawn Mullins

Oh Sue, this poem brought tears of sadness for a world gone totally mad. I join with you in prayers to heaven for peace and harmony.

Prayers for peace go out from me as well Sue.
I have a bleeding heart plant in my garden which should bloom in May as well.
Very nicely written.

Suetang - I believe we are all somewhat frightened by this war and what it will bring. Hang in there, I'm not sure if we can do much about it now...

(tears fall down my cheeks) Love lies bleeding! (sad sigh) This will be the consequence of every single war and seriously everyone should realize this as we must work for peace before nothing in this world lives! (big hugggssssssss) I pray with you, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
