Empty Remains
tears fall
blood red
like rain
in a world
ruled by
Hell
lost souls
parched
among ruins
fires burning
churning
searing skin
from flesh
consuming all
and still
the search
continues
for the love
you peeled
inch by inch
from my
bleeding
heart

I am sure heart must still be glowing…with bleeding stopped.. yes..and why not..it shall beat better..now.. without depending on anyone for the rhythm..
I could feel the emotion in this…every word, so beautiful. Hugs x
Oh, this is powerfully sad!
only because i can’t write a love poem to save my soul… i prefer pain i guess… lol
I can’t imagine the intensity of the pain expressed in the poem..!! Wonderful poem..
it is my gift, writing pain. perhaps, one day, I too will be able to tell tales of love as eloquently as your’s! thank you for the great comment and come back anytime!
oh boy, that’s empty alright!
… the love
you peeled
inch by inch
from my
bleeding
heart
– could feel the pain as if it was me

thanks for stopping by and for the great comment!
it is a wonderful passionate poem filled with emotions that one can appreciate from afar…. it is good to feel yes, no??
How we search for what is right in front of us. Amazing.
Ouch! This one hurts to read…the pain can be felt with the anger. Well done.
