Heart. Poems

Won't you try harder

so far I'm fairly unimpressed
I keep wanting to give you chances
~ prove your heart is true



Wordku: 5-7-5 words

I carry your heart within me

i carry your heart within me
(quiet as breath
and louder than silence)

the sky folds itself
into your eyes—
blue, unending, unafraid

i am no longer a single leaf
trembling against the wind,
for you are my tree—

the root in my marrow,
the blossom in my sleep,
the star i do not name
but endlessly follow

if all worlds vanished
(i would still remain
because you are here)

Emotional Buffet 2

I sat apart from life, too weary to live,
Even the breath I owed, I refused to give.

The curse of the world is rightful on me,
I thinned the trees, not the flowers to be.

In the end, the mind grows tired of love’s flame,
I made a firefly my partner in name.

Whatever the cause, it stands as a

Spirit of the mountain speaks

I open behind the curtains 
To let in the most beautiful ultra light 
You who knows this heart better than anyone else 
A soul calls out singing enchantingly 
In flash your blinding 
brings salt to the eyes 
crystal pearls flashing diamond silver
Mixed with golden sunlight 
paints a rainbow of colours 
laced with angel rays shines

Now That I Have Won My Love's Heart

Now That I Have Won My Love's Heart

Now that I have won my love’s heart and trust,
I must prove myself as a worthy choice
And secure the fickle bond between us
When others challenge for her hand and voice.

They utter words to sway her opinion
And whisper sweet nothings into her ear
(To paint me as a loathsome perception),

Cause You're Mine

In youthful bloom, I once did shine,
A beauty radiant, a heart so divine.
My laughter echoed, my smile so bright,
A joyous spirit, a love so light.

But time and life, they took their toll,
And changes came, my form began to unfold.
The mirror reflects a different face,
A woman worn, with a weary pace.

Your words, they cut, a painful

Yah Protect My Heart

Oh, Yah, shield my heart with Your divine might
Grant me a heart like Yours, where love shines bright
A heart that's not hardened, but tender and true
A heart that loves without bounds, and forgives anew

A heart that cares for others, and gives with an open hand
A heart that's selfless, and understands the plight of the land

LOVE FORGIVE

Love forgive and let go of all the negative feelings, they weight on life and give us no rest. 
Love forgive, and feel good, do not carry heavy thoughts in your heart for they are no good.  
Love forgive, let it go, do not let it keep you in a bad mood. 
Love forgive

a single spark can light the darkest night,
and turn our timid hearts to fearless flight.

Body and Soul

Body and Mind give way to the Heart and Soul. 
They let the emotions take over yet remain in control. 
Passion and sentiment now replace logic and reason. 
Interchanging ever so slightly- as if from season to season.

Feelings flow freely, replacing all thought. 
Emotions running wild without fear of being fought. 
The Mind sits back

Cross My Heart

I cross my heart and hope to die,
A childhood pact between you and I.
A sacred X, a secret sign,
Promising your heart would stay with mine.

We sealed our words with a silent grace,
A mirrored promise on each other's face.
One soul, two bodies, a perfect whole,
Bound by a truth that fed my soul.

But you broke the cross,

The Heart of Devotion

(“The Heart of It - #4”, 2007, original oil)

The Heart of Devotion

Opening the heart of devotion
Veils fall away
As so many colored leaves
In the Fall.

One by one they fall
Like tears, like snow, like rays of light
Nourishing the ground
Of my heart.

Where does this love come from
And where does it go? All I know 
Is that it flows

muse

You seem challenging,
Not an easy one.
You are quirky and unusual at the same time.
It isn't easy to read you, 
But effortless to observe.
You're philocalist, charismatic
Strong and brave-hearted
What you are is who I want to be.
It's a secret that I desired to know.
