This Unfinished Heart

This Unfinished Heart

A Poem by hannahspelledbackwards

I understand Your truth,
I understand Your path.
But I don't understand this aching pain,
And how I suddenly feel Your wrath.

Could you help me heal this broken heart?
It's been stolen
I can't seem to catch it back
Why is everything falling apart?
My heart became swollen
Of his love that forgot what I lacked.

It hurts so bad
To be in his presence, in his reach
I feel as if on my knees
Crying out why,
Why me?

I feel so out of place
My spot next to him has now been replaced
What was once comfortable and nice,
Is now my enemy,
It's what I hate.
I can't be in the same room as his eyes
Without feeling like a game.

This unfinished heart will someday be fulfilled
They say it won't, but it will.

The battle for my soul has been won,
You made me whole.
So why do I feel so empty?
I'm trying to find the brightening sun
In this never ending black hole
It's changed me
More than I had hoped.

I miss our talks and how You heal
God, I miss us
How dare they say you're not real
For I know You're real,
I feel Your warm embrace.
Or atleast I used to, not today.

"What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus."

I stare and waste in sighs
At this wall of my past
I see memories, laughter, photographs,
I sure miss those green eyes
But I know it's too late
And I know I shalt not regret
I failed Your test,
It's up to me to make the best
Out of what I tried to mend

This unfinished heart will someday be fulfilled
They say it won't, but it will.

So it's a tad all over the place, but I'll hopefully fix it later. It's just a mix of all of my emotions going on inside my brain, and trust me, I'm still trying to figure that all out myself. Reviews are much appreciated!

This work has the feel of a poem I wrote, so I can relate to this message. It's hard to square the pain we feel with the loving figure we came to know but we must find the rationale to finish the heart's growth. I really enjoyed this piece.

This sounds like you're speaking of your relationship with God, but maybe also of a signifiacant other. Had to reread it to make sure, but it's not really clear. I enjoyed reading it great poem :)
