Bleeding Broken Heart

by Just Sierra   Mar 27, 2005


Lightening flashes about me
As I cling to my black cloak
Everywhere I’m bleeding
From the heart that broke

The blood mingles with rain
Yet no tears have I cried
I’m still too lost and confused
To realize I’m broken inside

Eyes are of hollow madness
A swirling blue and black pool
Raining upon my conscience
So unmerciful and cruel

Bumps trail up my body
Shaking from the cold
People with their umbrellas
Staring at me, behold.

Dead roses bloom around me
Their detail so exact
Stems of green and black
My attention they attract

My short black nails
Trace the lining of a thorn
It feels my undying pain
Portrays my forlorn

Hopeless I know I am
Pathetically huddled in the rain
Cornered by the rest of the world
Reliving everyday of the pain

A familiar aroma about my body
Wrapped around my nose
I reached out in the air, tried to grab it
Skinned my hand on the thorn of the rose

No time to wipe the blood away
Afraid that you might leave
I part from my darkened thoughts
Away from my plans to grieve

I followed my heart’s connection
To the place where we first met
Rain dripping down my face
My clothes drenched, soaking wet

A fountain I sat beside
Wondering if you felt it too
Because you weren’t there, never came
Didn’t know you had no clue

With each step back to my humble home
The ground cracked beneath my feet
The rain didn’t stop because of my pain
It added to my heart of concrete

I sat down on the ground again
Wrapped in my cloak to hide
For the first time since my heart shattered
I saw down and cried.

    idk either. We seem to always bicker about our friendship in general, though I don't know how it keeps coming up. Its always a question I guess, but I don't want to answer. I like things the way they are now, that's all I'll say.

    i want to be your friend, but i want to know if you still wan to be mine? i dont want to fight for an empty cause. i want to fight for our friendship, and yes sadly your comment brought me down a lil, but thats life, life hurts. there is nothing we can do to stop that but love each other. life is always gonna try to hurt . and it always wins. its gonna hurt. but you have to be strong. you have to let the past be past and remember it not live in it. always stay strong. i have tried to the best of friend to you. with so much i have tried and fought of demons that try to keep me from you but i still fight for you. you have it in you. i know you do. its in you to be a great person. to grow up and be a great mother if you want. you have to learn from this past. to learn from our mistakes or our troubles. i will never let go of you unless you want me to. if you tell me then i will. but honestly, the friend you have become to me, im not sure what i would do if that happened. i have had so much pain in my life.....im use to it. im expecting to hurt. but i hope anyways. i hope for love. i hope our friendship will last. please. dont let me fight for an empty cause. i want you to be my friend. i fo real want you to be my friend, but if you truely want to let go, then i will not hold you back. but i want you to know, i would rather take your tears that hurt, then my own tears that burn my heart. if you let go it is really going to hurt me in more then just friendship. i love you very much. but like i keep saying, i dont want to fight for an empty cause, so please tell me what you would like. i hope that you are ok. just keep your eyes focused on what needs to be done and do it. dont worry about your family, they dont understand you. please dont hurt yourself, if you wanna be friends and cry then cry, if you want to let go , then let go. but whatever you do, dont hurt yourself please. i honestly think i might hurt myself if you do. really. and i dont want to but..........idk what i would do. so if you want to be my friend then i ok, but if you want to let go then i will open my heart and let you go. let me know

    Much love
