Her Again

Can not place the pain.....
Can not think of her again.....
My thoughts wrapped around the blade she holds.
How long can she be....stuck here in this memory
Wash away her darkness from my soul.
And if a heart bleeds?
And a lonely heart needs, (what for?)
And the blood rushes faster to the floor...
Can not place the pain...(where?)
oh.. I thought of her again...
Oh please take this darkness from my soul.
And if a heart bleeds?
And a lonely heart needs, (what for?)
And the blood rushes faster to the floor.....
How long can she be...stuck here in this memory..
Wash away her darkness from my soul.
Misgivings and regret..
Nothing seems to help me yet (yet!)
I can’t shake the beauty from my mind...
.............................I guess I need time...
.............................I guess I just need time.
Distance does not part,
Still she pushes through my heart,
Rage and Anger won’t make her go away.
How long can she be.....stuck here in this memory...
Wash away her darkness from my soul.
And if a heart bleeds?
And a lonely heart needs, (what for?)
And the blood rushes faster to the floor.....

Painful words of a lost love. It reminds me of a poem I wrote called DISTRAUGHT HEART. I feel the pain in your poem and still live it everyday. Great poem.

The repetition of the line" and the blood rushes to the floor" drives a powerful message straight through the heart. There is such insight here in to the emotions that accompany love lost. Well done. Amy Riberdy
