I Bleed

I Bleed

A Poem by Lookwithinsight

I am not sorry that I let my heart bleed like it should.
I am not sorry that it pumps with such vigor, it would.
I’ve got a steady blood flow and steady stream of thoughts lining the seams of things I’ve lost.
I wear them like patches stitched to my sleeve, a reminder of what has made me, me.
A cross I carry on my back, attached to my arms, you see.
I am not sorry that I bleed like a pen that writes so eagerly.
I am not sorry for my poetic finesse and rugged disease.
I am not sorry that I feel less and less with each slice to my psyche.
Anyone who’s anyone knows that it’s nice to see someone believe.
I am not sorry that I bring some to their knees, and leave quiet like a gust of breeze.
I am just sorry that I love with unease and I bleed because I feel the need.
I bleed for every seed that was stolen from the ground before a tree could grow into a beautiful thing.

Rhythmically beautiful write. Seemed like a rap-song. Enjoyed it.

The line - "I am not sorry that I bleed like that pen that writes so eagerly" should be replace with this one - "I am not sorry that I bleed like "a" pen that writes so eagerly." Overall's good. I suggest you to replace your line with the next one, because, your write's all 'bout fluent so.. if one reads it with flow, "a" would seem to be good than "that". However, "that" is not that bad. It still sounds good. Nice flow of ink.

I hear what you're saying, and as I read over it, it does sound better. Thanks for the tip!!!
I AM SORRY, that I am just reading this. This is beautiful. Never apologize for any aspect of you or anything that makes you you. This is perfect. As someone said to me the other day, I think playing with the structure would be "interesting" but you should keep it as you wish; This poem is very strong and you can tell you pored your heart into it.
