Heart

as the night falls down dead in colourless thoughts polluting inner eye drifting about lifeless waters in storm swell creeping out of shadows strangling emotions choking the life in the host deep frozen chilled cutting to the bone in odourless pain pleas battle in the clouds without mercy gasping crushing blow the taste of cold steel sweetly cut deep in swollen red eyes i bled on you drained tired look tearing emotions sick to the stomach knotted up tight barking mad the heart in pain cries silent lips move quivering ache on barren land parched the feeling walking through the eye a zombie in the graveyard of death heartless soul lost lifeless the eyes a mirror light within deep burning fire warms the heartbeat each beat fractured and broken in the dark alone to die is love buried ~ ~ ~

Ouch...this is powerful..I hope the person one is crying for deserves the tears .Cause if one is careless enough to break and hurt us.He she ain t worth it.It takes us time to realize that but as time passes ..One day will cone and say 'What were we crying for?'.In life all happens for a reason..even what we can t understand..and always..afzer the rain a rainbow applears out of nowhere.Smile cause life is something worrh celebrating.Heaven or Hell can start here.

I know the feeling of my heart dying after the loss of love. Wandering around with no purpose, almost lifeless like a zombie. And, never wanting to look for love, again. I really loved this poem about the darker side of love! Excellent writing, Liam!
