~ Bleeding Rose

E.L. Bleeding Rose, Poetry

 

~ Bleeding Rose

 

I found out my heart was a Rose

Lonely and ruby red

Seasoned and transience

I had hurt myself with daily grief

With too much love,

And too much thought 

In my  too heavy head

But what other way could I go;

As I felt the pain of others

In a honest thousand ways,

I could be from stone

Rigid and cold with no heart;

But it would not be the way

I chose to love and 

To love profoundly;

I dwelled inside your pain 

Felt you through every bone,

But even as your pain was mine

I chose always to inner shine

Wearing that heart on our sleeves makes it so easy to damage, I think. But what is the other choice? To hide our hearts so they can never be touched? I think I would rather love too much than too little. I would rather feel too much than nothing at all.

This is a raw and honest piece of writing, my friend. Very fragile. I think there is a beauty to that. When we love openly and honestly, we can feel that other person as though it is ourselves. That is a bond that we never lose.

I can very much relate to this one. Definitely a favorite.

Mooi gezegd lieve schat. (Beautifully said sweet pea) see you made me write first in Dutch, only real friends can so... :) thank you for this utterly brilliant review. I treasure each part of you sis X

This one made me smile. Sometimes it's hard when others are going through tough and trying times but no we should never let it bring us down. All we can do really is pray for and hope for the best. Xx

So true... and we will. :) we are survivors... :) you and me for sure! -x- thank you bestie!

It is always good to look at the brighter side of life no matter what comes our way for it helps us go through in small but continuous stages. It makes us reach the other end of the road bleeding but alive and wiser:) Great write and awesome pic!

You're always so good to delve in words, and meanings dearest... I am so pleased to hear your voice, and thoughts, Exactly, it makes us much wiser :) and stronger.... Tomo I'm for a last day on the road, can't wait to read your pieces, from a bad 3G and in the car I did, but it's not as beautiful as on my laptop, need to see them soon!!! :) hugssss and till tomorrow dearest x

[Androglossia]

And that's becasue I feel that I have known you for a very long time! Well I haven't got new writes. I'm only doing some editing on my older pieces:)

Oooh for me older works are as good as the newer ones.... the writer/poet is immortal, words once written or fictional, or true, are hidden treasures.... for me they catch my eye always, no matter in what time era... and you're brilliant, learn so much from you, so always coming back!!! :D ♥

"Too much thought in my too heavy head."

Yup.

Recognizable? :) thank you so much for pausing here....

[SeekingMeaning]

Too recognizable. :) It's good to find community amongst people with full hearts and full heads. Maybe we can all share the burden together.

LOL, great idea!!! :D I'm in.... ;) x
