Naked Heart

Naked heart
is cold without clothes
breaks apart
with her blues ridden woes

Beats her a river
while drumming her song
bleeding beginner
at learning she's strong

Haven't been on the site for like 8 months. Stopped writing when crisis threw me for a loop. Hope this is okay,

one particularity about this kind of "heart" - if it is indeed the one i'm familliar with - is the silent(in it's substance, not on it's manifestation) understood-by-no-one suffering, i see it as the representation of child birth (where this heart would be the baby), and this poem pleases me, it pleases me a lot, because it reiterates my vision ahaha, ah right, review, uhm good job

A nice write jesse, if only the heart had a raincoat or some protective clothing to protect from the elements. Good to see you again:)

[jesserose99]

I know, maybe some long underwear for the cold. Thanks for stopping by!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

more than okay, jesse...there is so much feeling packed into this piece...

the heart takes time to develop a thick skin....it bleeds much more easily when we are younger
and yes, when we bare it...it can get quite cold if the person we bare it for simply freezes us out.

Thank you, and so true:)

Nicely done. Much said in such a short amount, no easy task. Good job

[jesserose99]

Thank you for stopping by.

We all need to take a break, every now and then. It's good to see you again.

This is an interesting poem that conjured some imagery. Being stripped down to nothing can make people realize just how strong they are.

Thanks Clifford!
