Blank Paper Heart

Without you...
my heart is like blank paper,
making it seem acceptable
for the heartless
to scribble all over.

I want the world
to stay silent
as I wish to reside
within our surprise connection.
You left a mark only I could see.

A life without you
would seem like being
lost in a fire, scorching
by your every word
which didn't mean a thing.

With a violent fear
of failure, I would forget
to follow your soul...
the only thing that etched
a prize-winning novel
upon my blank paper heart.

Your words are so beautiful, so vivid, this state of existing with the etchings of your lover painted on your soul. May you always feel this life, these words rising over you, within you, this wondrous awakening in Love.

[PoeticSorcery]

people can have a powerful impact on us in our lives, even if they don't always realize it. writing poems about it helps though I think.

It really delighted me after the read. Yes we do feel like a blank paper heart after the heartbreak.
