Brandon Pace Poet Rhyme

Harbors of My Heart

My heart is a harbor
For pain and despair
Everyday I grasp for a moments peace - it teases but never really there

My heart is a harbor
For affliction to the highest degree
Both my mind and heart - will someday rejoice being free of me

My heart is a harbor
That clings to misery of the present and times past
My image is at the worlds mercy - how long will this last

My heart is a harbor
For dreams no longer alive
Days of hopelessness staring at me - wondering how will I survive

My heart is a harbor
With torment waiting it's turn
Only to feel numb I do sorely yearn

My heart is a harbor
Waiting for destiny's final chapter
It's only then - the future will no longer be my captor

Beata Agustin October 23, 2025 at 6:05 AM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed. Brandon Pace October 23, 2025 at 7:37 AM Hi Beata, thanks for the kind words and scripture. I consider myself to be blessed and fortunate to have a good life (you wouldn't know it from my poetry lol). Of course like everyone, I have those days that are not as blissful and those are the days I like to write about. (Warning) My writing can be a bit extreme and should never be taken literally. I know it's not very inspirational but it's relatable for some. BTW, my favorite scripture is James 1:12. Again, thank you for the kind words and stay blessed. : )
