Homeless Heart

My unguarded heart once had a home.
But, was abandoned; and now on its own.

Loved and nurtured once upon a time.
Never to be the same again; in this lifetime.

Hollow soul searches for amatively. .
To give "whole-hearted" and submissively.

Heart and soul coincide..
If one lives alone the other will die.

Drifting in the sea of life, solitarily.
Continuing on in this unknown journey endlessly.

One day to collide in the safe harbor of this existence...
A yearning soul to rescue mine with unconditional love and patience.

Erin this is a Masterpiece. What pain you describe here so eloquently. The loneliness. You are a wonderful man. You deserve a wonderful lady in your life www christiannetwork.com A sight for christian women. lYou have so much to offer to someone this poem broke my heart. Don't ever loose hope.
