If I wanted To Hear A Heart Beat...

If I wanted To Hear A Heart Beat...

A Poem by Jacky Bones
"

I'd rip mine out.

"

 Take this breath for me.

For I can't do it on my own.

Say this prayer for me.

For my words are unknown.

Can't go on.

No matter how hard I try.

Can't smile to long.

While I dry my eyes.

Let go.

Bless you.

 

Tell me what you want.

Tell me what you need.

Tell me when it's gone.

Tell me when you need... me.

 

I'll be braking lives.

For everything.

Like a man in the rain.

I told you my name.

That winter is coming early this year.

You didn't hear.

While he was here.

You're a liar,

And I'm oh so beautiful.

A hoax to live for.

Mine is to.

Dig this grave.

Take this away.

Do they celebrate christmas in heaven?

A dimmer light cast upon my own haven.

Up here alone.

More like down low.

I hope you'll be here soon

Bliss tearing eye.

For I,

Can't forgive myself,

But you do.

The way you helped my friend.

Take me by the hand.

I'll bleed one more time for me.

Also for you.

Please just let me cry.

Please don't let me die.

No matter what.

Don't give up

on me.

You're my everything.

I just wanted to rip my heart out.

 

Rescue me

Any time

Any where

Rescue me

Any one

Any body

Rescue me

From anything 

Anything at all

Especially me

 

I can feel my breath.

As it dances past my lips.

I'm slowly letting go.

Forgetting everything I know.

Even the things I've missed.

I guess I feel blessed.

I'm certain I am.

If this is going to plan.

Then why does this hurt me?

This photograph,

Is my only proof.

To prove to me.

That I exist.

I still don't believe.

That this is my exit.

As lonely as a saint.

Setting sail.

To find the faint

Sound of your soul.

A broken mirror.

Falls in my lap.

Almost literally.

Vanity sleeps here.

I want to come back

To you and me.

I wanted to die.

I wanted to cry

I'm through 

Writing songs about you.

Picturing you smiling

And you leaving.

My heart is in your hands.

I just wanted to cry

With your heart

In my hands,

But it was so dark.

A broken little promise.

I wont let you die.

 

Sincerely yours,

I love you always and forever

And goodbye.

It's beautiful, sad and beautiful.
You say it's nothing special to write poems like this
but you create extraordinary imagery
and your words are powerful.
and you wrote this when you were bored?
Every single poem of yours that I have read
struck me like only few others have.
If you don't believe me, that's fine.
But it's true.
