when u turned away the heavens cried tears of laughter tears of pride u let your hair down the wind grew fierce my bleeding heart it was pierced the clouds grew thicker when you left me through my tears, i couldn't see have you ever seen a sparrow fly against the wind or watch a salmon swim upstream? have u never seen a turtle struggle to the sea do you not know how u hurt me? then the heavens dried and the clouds cleared and i realised what i feared the rainbow brought not joy that could be but just a sad memory have u ever seen a sparrow fly against the wind or watched a salmon swim upstream? do you not know the pain that u cause me by denying the love i give u so free? i am a sparrow in the wind flying though i cannot win i am a salmon in the stream swimming in my own dream i am a turtle on the beach struggling to the water i cannot reach i am but a dying heart trying to touch your hardened heart the sparrow drenched, flies no more the salmon wasted, dies on shore the turtle sought out, in two tore my heart bleeding, loved before |

It is very heavy.It shows the pain that certain some one gave to you.I love it and think it should be published.The metaphors arer generous and in a way sad in the fact of heart ace.Keep writing. |

I LOVE the imagery you use in your poem. The metaphors are wonderful - broad enough for everyone to understand, yet specific and complex enough to convey your individual emotion. Great job! |

Exellent work! This seems almost like a song to me. I love it, continue your poetry! ![]() *Krista Knutson* ~*Like a lion, without fear of the howling pack, Like a gust of wind, ne'er trapped in a snare, Like a lotus blossom, ne'er sprinkled by water, Let me, like a unicorn, in solitude roam.*~ Hymn Of Buddha |
