Tangled Heart

This poem was inspired from a drawing I made of a heart tangled in spider webs. The drawing was inspired by Silverchair's "Black Tangled Heart".

You say I have no heart

You say I cannot love

Any happiness, I can’t be a part of.

 

You say my heart is black

It’s tangled with webs.

If energy surges from it, it must be negative.

 

Spiders are everywhere making the webs tighter

Making it harder for me to love

And harder for me to speak of.

 

But, your love isn’t greater

Your love isn’t purer

You have no love that you can speak of.

 

For to see what I see and to feel how I feel

You have to be as unloving and black-hearted as me.

Spiders are everywhere making the webs tighter

And harder for me to speak of.

Love this part, this is a wonderful write.
