Ruminance

Old feelings from the past,
Rekindled by a single thought
Hopefully not here to last.
My last heart has been bought.

My quick and simple solution,
Makes an insignificant impact
Stuck in a circle of confusion,
My own jealously is intact.

All the knives cutting me are blunt
But a particular blunt knife hurts
It's bluntness, in anger, makes me grunt.
This little heart of mine hasn't learnt.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet 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.
