Something Pierces My Heart

Something pierces my heart
‘tis sharper than a sword, and
Spear of any knight…

Through the eight ribs, it pierc'd
In the dark corner of my loneliness
It quickens my soul from adversity

But sometimes, put me in tears
Of true tenderness emotion…
It raises my head above the deepest ocean…

Also, raise me a dais of silk and gown;
Bend my heart like a rose bouquet
And like a tickset of apples' boughs

It subdues the laugh of hate,
But enact me a mystical cry of joy
And gives a scent of honour

It pierces my heart more deeper
I lost the lust of my heart
And I step on the path of intimacy

With passion and commitment
I live on its path… satisfaction,
Because, it's euphoria, it's LOVE.

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."
