Heartstring

Valentine's day will always be my favorite, watching everyone fall in love and making warmth for each other in the cold breeze. I wish to experience it as well with someone 

But I hate how Cupid makes me pull my heartstrings, everytime I thought about you but my love is too complex to share or express to. But in reality I don't care, you can tug my heartstrings everytime and I'll still love and cherish you

Heartstring

Drum beats
         Sunrises
                 Dancing dusky clouds
In tune with blues

In leafy garden
            To the hills of yearning
                      Never ending song
Sounds undying

Flowing rivers
            Flying doves
                      Flowery forest
                                   Primordial Eden
                                             Your smile
                                   Your eyes
                      Your silhouette

‘Till dawn
       Covers the night
                   Moonlight
                          Crystal Sea
                                 Reflections
                                      Your beauty
                                 From deep within
                           Your honesty
         And simplicity
My heart’s felicity

Till I dream of you
           Without fantasy
                         This heartstring
                                          Melody
                                     Harmony
                         Play intimately

Premium Member Heartstring Pulls

Gurl, you’re becoming a memory now
One that I won’t care to miss
Gurl, you’re just becoming one of many memories 
One I won’t miss anymore 
You left, what do you expect 

You’re just becoming one of many memories
One I won’t miss anymore 
I pray that I’m stronger than your 
Heartstring pulls
How you bring me back from your disappearance 
No more
No 
No
I pray that I’m stronger than your 
Heartstrings pulls


Heartstring Vacancies

I’ve got heartstring vacancies and I’ve got an empty bed
It seems some hearts are places I'm not meant to tread

Heartstring

(for Pemi)

You are the woman
You are my other half 
and I find it hard to desert
You are the thoughts in my head
You are the grip on my hand
that wills me to a fixation
and I find it hard resisting
You are the reason my heart beats
and the reason I feel this nameless pain wrap around me
And still, you are the rare elixir--the balm to heal my wounded soul

Heartstring Dreams

An ancestral anomaly
A sense of escape
Cannot chase inner workings
Trust in what you feel
As the tide pulls you in
Fear not for you’re safe
Be one with your heart
And hold onto me
Take hope as you sleep
While you wake in your dreams
Close the gap with reality 
And make home in your soul
