Locked Heart

by Brittany C   Oct 11, 2006


Locked,
No one can get in,
No one can get out,
He tries to open up to you,
But he cant,
It's just to hard,

He is afraid he'll get hurt,
You tried to find the key
to his locked up heart.
You cant give up on him,
You love him to much.

He closed up his heart,
Never opening it to any one,
Never letting out his feelings,
You stick by his side through all times,
You help him the best that you can,

You try to show him how to open up
but it may be too late for his heart,
His heart has grown cold,
His heart is slowly turning to stone,
The locked heart will never open,

Locked against pain and love,
Locked for ever to stay safe,
is the heart of stone. Forever
frozen in time. Never knowing
what true love feels like.

    Sad but sweet at the same time. Very hard emotions to capture at once. 5/5

    When using the word "to," you might want to know that "to" is used as "to you," or "I'm going to..." Fill in the blank!

    But when you're saying "to" as in "also" or if you're using it to describe an amount, "to" becomes "too."

    So it'd be "too much" and "I'll come, too."
    So, just if you didn't know that one...[I imagine you did, just forgot to edit this one first, right?]...yeah.

    This poem was good. It was like... pure thought... just, sort of, what you were thinking, I suppose?
    I liked it a lot, honestly. It lacks a bit in terms of vocabulary, but, that's not so important once you get down to the meaning, which was very identifiable in this.

    So, yeah, I liked it, nice job!

    Hm I liked this one as well. I liked how it showed all the emotion of trying to get someone to open up its very hard and if you have to try to hard a lot of people dont have the patience for it so they just give up. I liked the 2nd last stanza because it showed everything just like a picture. all of the struggles on both ends. wonderful work.

    Great poem, only one question though...was it you or the guy who had the locked heart?....not that it matters, the ideas and emotions were there and conveyed very nicely...great job.
