Bleeding Heart

I am the heart that bleeds, ever since I met you. Drops were falling onto my soul. Drip,drip, ever so slow....I didn't know. I am the heart that bled, from all the love I shed. Trying so hard to please you. Drop after drop, until I stopped loving you. I am the heart that broke, literally from the hurt that you inflicted. Never could have predicted Just how cruel you could be to me. I am the heart that beats stronger each day. Since you went away. Leaving behind my flesh and blood. Who made the pain go again. I am the heart of this family. We are strong without you. I have no regrets, thanks to you I begat three hearts, that now beat as one with mine. My heart will be fine. 20/02/2016
