Fragility

So sweet, so tender
So endlessly free and filled with hope
A sign of love, a piece of truth

A footprint in a heart
A heart alike a blossom
Unopened and fragile

Left in the sand
Washed upon a stranger's shore

One heart
Alike a rose's
Fragility

    I like this poem! It showed the beauty of pain...if that makes since. I like the rose metaphor you used to explain the sweet and fragile heart. Good job!

    Sweet, pretty and slightly sad... beautiful comparisons & imagery too... luv it gf! I've come to learn that... u can actually love & NOT b fragile! Seriously! How? The key is MATCHING the M.F*er's "heartlessness!" Sound contradictory? Well, here's the 2nd part: ever so slowly & so very naturally seeming to him... you then leak out a li'l bit more true
    GL with life & love! xoxo

    I wish I could tell you some thing to help you toughen up your heart. I have know all to well what it's like growing up not having a really suportive family. I do know what it's like to feel like there will never be someonewho really truely loves you.There is someone out there for you, it's just a matter of finding them, and not giving up completely. I'm sorry I haven't been here for you as much as I would have liked. I've missed our talks.
    Love ya Kiddo

    I love this... it's short and sweet... I like the similes you used here... Thanks for sharing, this was a great read!
    The only thing I don't like is the colour choice... the pink font on blue background makes my eyes hurt... Maybe make the background darker?

    I wish you lots of luck in the contest!
