Wounded Heart

With a wounded heart
I lay here and cry.

Some wrongs I've done
I won't deny

to be ripped apart
From your embrace
Brings pain that won't heal
Without leaving a trace.

Beautifully written, from pain comes beauty only hard to discern when one is in the moment of difficulty. JDH

Short and sweet Neil. Very nice. Love is such a powerful emotion. In putting God first then everything else is secondary. It is no surprise that in doing so everything else in life gets better. Thank you for all your comments. God Bless!

Hi, Neil, this is deep. The pain is real, sometimes we don't realize how bad things ca go until it is too late. Enjoyed. LINDA
