Bleeding Heart

   I loved you through thick and thin.
I loved you through sickness and health.
I gave you the heaven and stars.
I gave you me.

I sat with my heart on my sleeve.
Bare to all.
Now I sit with my heart bleeding in my hands.

I regret every sleepless night I wasted on you
All the tears I wept.
I regret every breathe I shared with you.
Every love word that I gave selfless to you.
I regret the trust that I gave you.
I regret the vows that I honored.

You thought I was the fool.
You thought I would never know.
Your problem was… You thought.

I will go on living
I will go on believing
I will go on trusting
I will go on…
And Without You.

This is a strong poem that shows resolve and that you will go on and never look back. That's a great way to handle things, if you can't move on, you'll never go forward. Great write. T

This started out tragic, painful, heartwrenching, but the ending is so perfect, so determined to not let this get you down. I love it!

"I will go on living
I will go on believing
I will go on trusting
I will go on�
And Without You."

Ouh burn! But a burn well deserved and a vision of a future, a life that did not end with this pain, this betrayal. A beautiful piece of work Diana, simply beautiful!

betrayl sucks

[Fantasyfairy]

The strength that comes once a broken heart has healed. Wonderful write, if full of pain and sorrow, it also shows courage and determination. The last stanza says that, and I love the last line best of all. XX

'I sat with my heart on my sleeve.
Bare to all.
Now I sit with my heart bleeding in my hands.'
- Its like stripping your broken heart naked!
Lovely and a sad one too.
Thanks for sharing.

"Your problem was� You thought." - this particular line resonates to me, as I have been there countless times. You don't think when it comes to love. At the same time - you also don't think when your partner is being unfaithful to you. You just know through in through - in both instances. I know how the stinging motions of love betrayal can feel. I agree - the ending is where you really nailed it in the coffin - so to speak. I can feel your pain intermixed with the shattered remains of love emanate through this poem. You've done some fine poetry Diana.

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Yes to give your love unconditionally only to have the others one betray you is a bitter cold feeling and your raw anger of hurt is well expressed... but the end is the best when you display your will to move forward

[Kim Kruger]

Love, regret, strength of will...all laid out with purpose and conviction. A cool message for the cruel betrayer of the heart. Excellent.
