Does heart cancer exist?
Mine aches
Too long
Too soon
Tell me, Ms Life
Is this the aim?
Is this why I was born?
To my shore
You sent me
That message
In a bottle
So shiny
So white
So well the words
Described
So curious I was
Had to open and see
So again
This heart was sold
At the cheapest fee
And once
All for free
Turned upside down
Like in the not so old times
My soul so well revealed
Turned upside down
Like in the not so old times
My soul so well revealed
Tell me, Ms Life
Is this what I came here for?
Is this what I came here for?
A stone
No matter how strong
Is broken eventually
All you need
An appropriate
Talented
Experienced
Insistent
Insatiable
Chisel
Chisel
Especially easy
When so often
It was
Previously shattered
Once and again
And so poorly rebuilt.
Tell me, Ms Life
If I promise
And commit myself
To closeness
Will I be guaranteed
Not to
Be shattered again?

We live in a shattered world, if we return to ourselves is it possible to rebound. I think that we, part of the whole, also are in pieces. My belief is that we cannot escape, never.
Nice poem
Good day
taking the risk to love...can hurt so bad...but to not love...to not take that risk again....
First of all HUGS and smocchies.
Gosh!! this is wonderful, sad and true. I loved how you referred to the message in a bottle washe up on shore. thats how love can be, washed away quickly and shattered.
As my life is a little topsy turfy now i feel all these emotions..
Great photo but the sweetest Poet helps the shattered pieces of my heart renew
HUGS N TI AMO
As Jonatha Brooke sang, in her song "Made Of Gold":
"What you want most will elude you
What you want most will elude you
Cos everything, before it changes
Seems to be made of gold."
It just may be possible that I am feeling exactly the same way as your poem says that you are.
Oh, Dulce... this one made me cry. It's filled with the pain of heartache - something many of us understand all too well. What's to be gained from it all? Goddess only knows.
BIGGG hug!!!
Dulce, this is a beautiful prayer-poem and i think God is in your listening area.

Love the opening . . . thank you for sharing. This poem has touched me.
Always that chance of being shattered! I guess that one party is always more at risk.
Los corazones que sienten siempre estarán expuestos, en la vida hay que correr riesgos y en el amor es todo o nada no hay vueltas.
Aun la vida no ha terminado de hablar...
Besos:)
finders, keepers
losers, weepers

(((((( Dulce )))))) I wish I could reach out and hug you right now. How much love hurts at times! Yet, even though ironic, it is what gives us the will to move on. Your turn will come, my dear. Keep your head up, keep the faith.
With love and warm hugs, my dear friend!
Oh, this is sad and made me shed a few tears for you.

Sad but it's real and beautiful just the same. We can all relate, can't we?
Abrazos, amiga. ¡Bien dicho!
Hoy me emocionaste tanto, mi Dulce amiga. Que las palabras se agolpan atolondradas en mi garganta, a la espera de que el nudo se deshaga.
Hermoso. Mil besitos!!!
I love this poem, Dulce. I feel it in my being. It is from loving so deeply and then letting go if only to save ourselves...then comes that light of hope again...I find this poem so truthful and I have felt that way too. No guarantees exist in the realm of love but I, for one believe that the truest one is one I've not yet experienced. But I will. And you will too.
Hugs for you~ xoxo

This is very good. And the ending is so perfect.
Gaffer tape! That's the cure. Lot's of gaffer tape!
mmmm, a shatter-proof heart? living and loving makes that impossible i think... what a lovely thought though.
Dulce, you do it yet again....I can feel that are hearts are on similar paths...I can feel the cancer of the heart in this :)
very powerful - taking us places we have all been and to places yet visited - that world of love - beautifully written!
