Weakly Protected Heart

Read. Eat. Think. Enjoy.

I've had boyfriends,

I've had crushes,

I have those ten-second romances playing in my head when I see somebody attractive.

I have a heart that falls every time.

 

A heart that falls every time

is a heart that shouldn't love.

 

A heart that stays steady every time

is the heart I wish I had.

 

My heart is fragile,

it's like a porcelin doll,

once you drop it...

it takes awhile to find and glue it all back together...

 

A heart that falls every time..

is the heart that I carry and share like an open book.

 

A heart that stays steady every time

is the heart that is protected with locks and keys.

 

My heart is read,

like a lost and easy to open diary,

you find it,

you can read it.

 

My heart is a heart that falls every time.

My heart is a heart that hurts every time I have a boyfriend,

every time I have a crush,

and every time I have a ten second romance that plays in my head.

 

I want that prince charming to come riding around the corner,

I want him to be the one to find my heart,

keep it,

never drop it,

and never read it and share it with others.

 

My prince charming has been lost.

My heart is a heart with a lost prince charming.

The concept's good, and I couldn't find any gramatical errors, but there were a couple parts that stood out to me as 'could have been worded better'. For instance "read it and share it with other people" would sound slightly better as "read it and share it with others" - ie, we know they're people, and a shorter line would help the flow here.

[Melody]

Okay. Thanks Zombie Waffle. I will go back and correct that! Thank you so much!

I really like the line "My heart is fragile, like a porcelain doll." Also I can relate to the concept. We feel the greatest joy, and the most destructive pain through our hearts. Well written, you are a very skilled poet.

[Melody]

Thank you! :D You just made my day, I swear! :D You're quite the skilled and talented also. It's no wonder you've been published and stuff.

[ewest1220]

Thanks :) though I'm still waiting for my publisher to finish the work and get it posted right now I just have a kindle book.

There's the link if you'd like to take a look at it ^_^

[Melody]

Thanks! :) I shall take a look, it was making me curious anyhow. Lol.

[Melody]

I think I'm going to trick my mom into buying that for me on her kindle. XD

[ewest1220]

lol it's all stuff that isn't on here (legal reasons) I may add a couple from here once my contract w/ kindle direct is up though. I would love it if you read that work though I think you'd really enjoy it :)

[Melody]

I'll either pay for it myself or get my mom to use $2 for a book. Lol. And that would be lovely. I hope everything goes well.
If I get published I think I shall come to you for advice and stuff. XD

[ewest1220]

Awesome! I'll buy a copy too when it comes out ^_^

[Melody]

Lol. ^.^

I really like this poem, you wrote this piece well.
My heart is more taped together then stuffed in a box and locked up tight. Hard for me to trust since I have hurt so much. So this poem I can relate with, thanks for the great read.

[Melody]

Thank you. :) I know how that goes, and it sucks.
You're welcome, I guess, feel welcome to anything. :)

[Michael X]

The sentence formation works well to bring the motive to life, a sense
of romance and life, combined with a cause for dream, excellent job

[Melody]

Thank you. :)

[Maan]

Don't you think that you are just too young to look for some prince charming? :) I'm not concerning with your personal life but this poem made me question it. How ever this poem is really nice, perfect placement of each line. and and and here's a thing, Wish you find him soon. :) lol. Good writing, keep writing. :) You have a lot of potential to be an awesome poet.

[Melody]

I've been told that, but I will never give up! Lol. Thank you. :) I hope I find him soon too.

AWW!! Thank you! Lol
I want to hug you! XD

[Maan]
