Bleeding Heart

Bleeding Heart

A Poem by Brandon Mathis

Turn your blind eye

And act like you don’t see me

I just want you to acknowledge that I’m alive

In the end the truth will be left behind

As my heart bleeds

 

You leave me all alone to fight my own war

The more I stumble, the more I feel torn

Sometimes I wish that I weren’t born

I’m broken again with my life so scorn

I can’t even imagine what my life was before

 

I’m sitting here fighting my sleep

Because I know I will have a bad dream

I don’t want to wake up screaming

With my heart in my hand bleeding

 

There are so many emotions

That I can’t escape

You are putting me through so much pain

It feels like my life you have stolen

And my faith you take

 

In these moments

I’m alive but I’m still broken

So many emotions,

That have been stolen

With my bleeding heart in my hand

You make me feel like less of a man

So take my hope and steal my soul

i hope so
so very emotional, a bleeding heart indeed. Emotions of the heart can be a strange thing, out of our control, a war between what we know to be true and what our heart has to say to us. very good write :)
