protect your heart


like a glass of human blood,
fragile and breakable

either love can be soft
like a peacock feather.
flutter your wine muscle
be content and sigh,
sleep sweet night away.
or can be tough
like a sharp sword,
pierce hard
shatter into small pieces
difficult to mend it back
together.

 

 

 

Author notes

Option1.
Romance is never born OF love,
instead it is born of a heart
broken BY love.

    Oh you have captured the true definition of love, yes it can make one happy and carefree but when the heart is broken we are left broken and alone. What an amazing write so full of vivid and emotional imagery thanks for sharing, hugs Theresa

    What a beautiful take on the prompt. Your imagery is lovely.

    One thing that I would recommend is adding some punctuation in to regulate the flow of the poem, as well as make it more readable.

    Good luck in the contest,
    Zach
