Born Again

You weigh heavy on my heart today

I feel you pumping through my veins 

I cannot describe this feeling

It is not something one easily explains

Like an emotion born again

A love thought lost and gone

Suddenly resurfacing from my heart

where it has been all along

From deep down within

This energy has been resurrected

Exposing the connection we have

and how its been effected

My mind is so scattered

I can't process my thoughts

My adrenaline in full circulation

My stomach tied in knots

Overflowing with anxiety

A million questions race through my mind

Every emotion full throttle

Twitterpated redefined

I can't ignore what is happening

I can only wipe the tears

falling from my eyes

As I taste the memories

True love never dies

 

Its born again.

I know nothing of the standards that "Real" poets use to review poetry, so I can only comment based on what I do know. I always thought (possible ignorance on my part) that poetry had no rules which is what I love so much about it. I use my writing to purge out onto page that which lives in my core; I use it as a vehicle to express and understand my experiences and emotions, a way to help me self examine if you will. I enjoy reading the works of other writers for their experiences and subject matter also helps me to delve within and see myself in the world around me. So with all that being said, this piece reached into the very core of my soul, touching and lifting my spirit. I found this piece exquisite and moving.

A nice way to identify that emotion called love. Good piece!

I am in Love with this poem.

"I can't ignore what is happening
I can only wipe the tears
falling from my eyes
As I taste the memories
True love never dies

Its born again".

I am in love with the pain as well.

Out of the blue i never thought it would be about LOVE born again.

Hey you your poems are like buses. You wait ages for one them three come at the same time lol! This is a flowing piece and I could not decide if it was sad and about reflecting on lost love or someone who got excited about the thought of their loved one and the feelings were of first time intensity every so often?

true love never dies....but one can die a thousand deaths waiting for that statement to reach fruition. i guess that never means forever. but wait....we don't live that long! i believe in true love, what i don't believe is that every time we fall in love it is true, or it is felt as deeply by both parties. maybe it should say "two love never dies"? great poem, Keely.

"True love never dies"-- true statement.

I can honestly say that I have felt the same way that you feel in this piece. The emotions are definitely there, and you've expressed them quite deeply. The anxiety, the knotted stomach, the adrenaline...it's all very palpable. I think the only thing you could do to improve upon this is perhaps add in a little more detail as to the images--also a few little grammatical and wording issues. Overall, though, well done.
