Eileen Manassian Poet Rhyme

Heart Intact

I’ll walk away with heart intact
No need with blood to sign this pact
When pain abounds, I need to act
I will survive, now that’s a fact!

No use for love, oh, can’t you see?
Much happier, I'm sure to be
Heart strings I've snipped, now I am free
To touch the dreams that live in me

I will not be a love sick fool
To be abused and treated cruel
When deep inside, there shines a jewel
I’ll bring my heart back under rule

Love shifts so much like desert sand
Can’t be confined in heart or hand
I need a rock on which to stand
So from my heart, this love is banned

           

YES! From my heart your love is BANNED!

Justin Bordner September 25, 2014 at 1:43 PM My Muse is always with me, playful and testing...forgetting you is not an option woman, you are the pulse in my passion. I will have something new and savory for you to feel Friday night, after midnight Beloved Poetess...Justin Eileen Manassian September 25, 2014 at 2:56 PM Oh....it will be so hard to wait that long....You are so sweet with these words, Justin...and I do have a sweet tooth! ;) I'll be waiting with bated breath...

Justin Bordner September 25, 2014 at 1:51 AM A heart intact need not overreact to the fact that freedom born from love is twice as sweet as liberty through lonely struggle. The jewel in you shaped smooth and stout from courage calm, inner glow pretty as diamond snow. The message of independence, not from love but from misuse is one I have lived as well. I love the powerful way you express your resolve, and the rhyming is tight Eileen...J.A.B. Eileen Manassian September 25, 2014 at 3:15 AM Justin...I've missed your visit so much. Thank you for remembering me. I'm going through changes. I'm trying to be strong.... It isn't easy. You know me well. Your post shows that. Hope you are well, my Poet Warrior.

Demetrios Trifiatis March 25, 2014 at 11:25 AM A tender heart, no matter how much it is hurt, still tender and loving will remain! I feel your pain and anger and disappointment even I sense your determination to obliterate his love, BUT you cannot obliterate love from your heart because you are synonymous of love! Your poem beautiful your suffering unbearable your love though infinite! Eileen Manassian March 25, 2014 at 11:28 AM You know me so well, Demetri mou. Ti tha kano? Thank you or your lovely post.

Poet Tacito March 24, 2014 at 11:58 PM Remove the clutter...expand your heartbeats. No more sweeping the specks of dust under the rug...throw the damn rug in the trash and walk again. For good.
