Glass Hearts

Submitted by Madeline on Tue, 01/01/2013 - 21:48

I drew hearts on the foggy glass Before everything happened And though it felt long; time does pass Even unexpected

My eyes were stinging sharp and I Wanted a way out Angry on my phone I typed A text I’d never send

I folded in upon myself All closed off from the world Praying, heart fell to stealth As I wished it all away

But then I opened one eye And saw the hearts were gone Wiped away, wiped dry All except for one

A gorgeous little swirly heart So perfectly drawn Then He gave us a fresh start He's good like that, you see

It went away not long later The heart, God’s way of speaking And scribbling my heart on paper It? It is just mine.

But it stays. It never goes away.

Nice little poem. Quite interesting. A bit abstract. :)

The first two lines were my favorite until I reread the ending. "It is just mine./But it stays." Lovely.
