Forever In Your Heart

Why am I bound to misery?
these chains of pain grasp,
weighing me down, clasped,

tightly clinching, grabbing,
pulling me down and under,
without air to breathe,

drowning in a sea of brokenness,
dark, are the tears I shed,
bleeding my soul out to dry,

Dark are the waters I trod upon,
black has become my day, my night,
haunting ghosts of past memories,

dance in my head, to and fro,
never stopping to rest,
inflicting more pain,

        

Oh the torture of love,
the death of love,
I now mourn,

Buried deep, but never dead,
still alive, still alive,
my body, but a shell,

All that remains, the stain,
you placed upon my heart,
even death shall not remove.

Another day, another night,
I sit and wait to be rescued,
who will break these chains?

Please hurry , before its too late,
my heart and soul is dieing,
For real love, it can wait....

it can wait.....

Romantic Heart
This is a very soulful piece encouragng the reader to share the loss of love; and the Angel picture is quite stunning.

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Dylan Thomas

You know that you will never be alone.

If I could reach out and comfort you I would, have no doubt.

Don not let the flame of your blessed life flicker.

Never sigh for a better world, it's already composed, played and told.

You write pain so vividly... I know this place far too well... you've painted its portrait. Excellent work!!
