In My Blood

a repost

Running through my blood

Are many a spices

That’s brings out

My wild side.

 

Hidden in my blood

Are traces of vinegar

Resulting from times

I couldn’t control my anger.

 

Coursing through my blood

Are bits of gold and silver

From the love I’ve bestowed

And sometimes received in kind.

 

Clogging up my blood

Are shards of broken glass

From many betrayals

Of those I blindly trusted.

 

This is my blood

That journeys through a heart

That somehow continues to beat

Even when my will and reason

Is _____________________

'In My Blood'
Rock n roll cowboy,
Within our life's will the motivation and desire to continue on surges and wanes. I notice your view of this desire too give your best within the metaphor of 'life blood.' Guess it makes sense to see our physical heart and emotional connected. Glad you kept trying and are alive to share your experience. Well done!

Ooooh, creativity yet again...flat lined. Alright I thought I read this one before. Now I see that it is a repost. Super write.

What great visuals this gives the reader. I love the intensity in this, like putting our fingers over your pulse as we read it! Wow, what a talent you have. Flows very nicely :) ( no pun intended).

Another beautiful writing. I agree with everything Lorraine said....it is very easy to follow you along on the journey of life...the writing pulls you inside...Awesome!!

Vivid imagery in this one! I follow your journey...and I can appreciate how every experience is logged inside your blood...as a mark so to speak-- by the time your journey reaches its destiny, your blood is of another kind almost...as compared to the innocent pure kind that it was before your life's page had been written on. I like this very much.
