I Am Blood

I AM BLOOD I am blood, representing strong emotion Pumping strongly from a distressed heart I was merely a gentle and constant flow Now, suddenly a geyser forcefully spurting The cause is not ecstasy, as it is hurting Whatever the reason, I would not know I’m also the messenger sent at the start And in time, all will gain a clearer notion it’s not just blood when hearts pour out More a vibration one can sense and feel There are signs that some may detect But with both eyes closed, it is clear To see resonance that comes with fear That stifling a thought cannot protect And feeling raw emotion is very real As knowing the truth dispels all doubt
