Three words and a glass of wine

A young girl oblivious to the world around her learns to forgive the four letters that hurt her

An empty breeze fills her heart

Mercy and depression engraved on her face

Is love intangible as the Gods we know?

Her soul replaced by an unmarked tomb

Why is love associated with the heart and never the mind?

Is the ever pumping blood vessel as important as we make it?

Deeply hurt by time

Betrayed by four letters

Her damaged lips as fractured as the land she stands on

A blade of light pierces through her Earth work, illuminating hope

Her sculptured pain slowly degrades

An immortal life re-emerged, a soul without pain

when I first read this I was thinking the four letter was "hate" instead of "love" and I guess that is derived by my own negative feelings toward love especially since today is Valentine's Day"

Love this lines........

Her soul replaced by an unmarked tomb
Her sculptured pain slowly degrades


a nicely written poem that asks the right amount of questions while searching for the answers

My feeling towards the day are mutual, I thought I should try and write a poem and what better day to write a poem then on Valentines day. Thank you for reviewing my work . I tried to keep it short as possible.

Don't worry about the length, focus on the completeness of the message....nothing else matters.

[Warren Daniel II]

So, you would rather prefer a short poem with content, rather then a very long poem with no message?

[Jerome F Knox III pseudonym Nefarious J. Dorsey]

For some reason I can't see your entire so based on the lines I can see here is my response.... The length or the amount of words don't lend to it's strength unless the message is delivered and received, than the purpose to which it is intended is best served

When it is believed, conceived and perceived......

You have done a very good job here! This poem makes you think and wonder how this poor girl's life pans out after so much pain. Although very tragic, at last somehow this soul as at rest.

Regards,

You write very beautifully, dear poet. This is a deep reservoir. Indeed, "why is love associated with the heart and never the mind"?

"Why is love associated with the heart and never the mind?" -- this was an outstanding line to me as this thought has vexed me enough and is at the center of the piece(literally ;)) Good job (y)

[Amulya Bhardwaj]

I found it very interesting!! every line forces to read ahead .... very well done!!

[Sophy Freebirds]

I liked this poem as it described the transition from a warm heart to a freezed heart.The thing i am striving to become. I saw the description to be cold. "unmarked tomb"- gives an idea of immense pain which the girl went through.I am not a great fan of love poems.But i do like poems on Judas kiss :p nicely written
