A heart on fire ♥

Missing image

Your brutal thumping tongue stab trough my soul
Beating me with words is your only goal
Your thundering terms push away my cries
I won’t listen to your paranoid lies

I’ll get up and cut you straight out my heart
No tears to follow for being apart
A life without love is empty and dry
But your loves poison will leave me to die

To save my heart from the hurt and the pain
I need a spell to bliss this ache with rain
Through the dark enchanted forest I’ll run
Find a wizard to make this hurt undone

The power of love is blissed by my pain
If I don't let go, you will do it again

  • Your heart is hurt. You have sought bliss. Hope you get it and get it soon. I liked the line, "A life without love is empty and dry" most. Well done.

  • A masterpiece!

    This is how a poem should be written... two more lines and you have a sonnet. A simple rhyming (aabb ccdd eeff) but very effective imagery; you have a real gift for words… It was a great pleasure reading your words.

  • Yours is much better than mine! You have to have a chance of winning.

  • wow this poem is deep it tells about love and pain that we all endure from love, i like the rhyming flow you have here, im not all that great with stanzas, you did a wonderful job at breaking this up in just the right places, i like how you will find a wizard to undo the pain, keep up the wonderful writing, -your friend Amy

  • wow, this is amazing.
    the picture couldn't match more perfectly with your words.
    good luck in the contest.
  • this is such a great write and goes so well with this picture. I loved the imagery you have used and you have painted such a vivid picture for the reader. All the best for the contest.

    Love

    Sometimes love potion number 9 does not work out to well. Or perhaps love is but an illusion. Whatever it seems that in trying to find loved one always finds pain instead. Now I wonder why?

    I love it! Thank you so much for entering my contest. This poem is a fast deliberate read and shows the cold hard emotion set off by the aabb rhyme scheme. What a wonderful dark fantasy tale. Good luck in the contest.

    Love,
    Amera
