Bleeder

Evolution has begun.....

Bleeder

My heart bleeds

Slipping through your decadent hands

What sacrifice given

for one moment of comfort

My soul shrinks

clotted remnants of a broken heart

dying

and crying

screaming with rage

only to drip with crimson tears

until the hourglass spins

gossamer strings

of lucid white

 

As it flees the horizon

I’ll take the leap off this ledge

and forever fly free

from the nightmares of loneliness

leaving behind the grim memories

gathering the broken pieces

in tidy shattered piles

believing in the dawning

of a vivid new smile

 

I’ll bid farewell

to all the insolent lies

spreading my newfound wings

I’ll soar and fly

I’ll believe in my own philosophy

surrendering the insanity of my screams

feeling the pain of revelation

reveling in the promise of restoration

 

I’ll stand tall

testifying to the transformation

forgetting all the self hate

welcoming the hand of

FATE

I’ll step through the door of destiny

through the portal of mirrored mistakes

I shall execute my mind

my sweet pulsating heart

and dive into the abysmal whisper

floating

through the corridors of my silent sanity

 

How could I have been so blind

holding onto forsaken truths

in lieu of misled contentment

But too late will never be

the bloody tears run cold

begging

clinging for warmth

instead they crystallize

entombed in an eternal chrysalis

caging in forever’s tomorrow

the bleeding curse of my tormented heart

Spread those wings my friend. This evolution is what you need.

"I'll bid farewell

to all the insolent lies

spreading my newfound wings

I'll soar and fly

I'll believe in my own philosophy

surrendering the insanity of my screams

feeling the pain of revelation

Believe in your own philosophy, because it is yours. Believe in your own insanity because it is what makes you unique. Keep on this path my friend. At the end is the true YOU. When you find her, embrace her and hold on for the ride of your life. The true ride you have been waiting for. My only hope is that I get to enjoy the ride with you.

You are the methaphor queen. I really like how you are questioning and then solving your destiny. You are still on a journey and your writing takes us there with you for the moment. This s the 2nd piece I've read and I am becoming a fan. With lines like; I'll bid farewell to all the insolent lies spreading my newfound wings
I'll soar and fly which is your decisions to only contain the tuth to my favorite lines; I'll stand tall testifying to the transformation forgetting all the self hate welcoming the hand of FATE, which is your acceptance to your spirituality. The emotions that you stir in your readers get a standing o. Great scribe.

Gleaning what little I do know of you from inference, from my interpretation of your poetic metaphors, from many months of reading, I have one question. This poem describes perfectly the path of your destiny. Therefore why freak out? I know it feels scary but you got it all on the personality/beauty front. I'm stubborn and selfish like you, this kind of self determination freaks me out too, but Baby you are shining now and you will be a star and then you will supernova, it's only natural to feel a little adrenaline in the process.
What is lovable about you will continue to be loved by members of your past/former self and that which must transform has already begun. The reward is you to yourself. I can't even imagine how much greater your new loves will be and your renewed loves, they'll certainly be more real. I bet that other side of you has been waiting for this date forever. To which I say the following two famous Canadian sayings, "F#@%in A, and Give Er!".
I loved this! it gives me confidence that I'm not the only crazy fool to follow my destiny! Never look back!
