Let Bleeding Hearts of the World Unite!

Let bleeding hearts of the world unite! Drenched in sorrow, only those whose hearts have been shredded dare apply. Deep calls to deep, affliction meets misery, grief grows rapport like a second skin, fitted like misfortune’s glove. Heartache’s brine seasons souls scrupulously and breeds empathy that is released, spores of mercy, descending like dew on…

Let bleeding hearts of the world unite!

Drenched in sorrow,

only those whose

hearts have been shredded

dare apply.

Deep calls to deep,

affliction meets misery,

grief grows rapport

like a second skin,

fitted like misfortune’s glove.

Heartache’s brine

seasons souls scrupulously

and breeds empathy

that is released,

spores of mercy,

descending like dew

on bleeding hearts of the world.

Let them all unite!

    I love this, of course–my 2 fave phrases are “rapport like a second skin”, and “misfortune’s glove”. Great work–and I do believe my application will be accepted. God bless you–love, Caddo

      I think you’re already ‘in’! 🙂 I have found quite a few floating around in cyber-space – and living to write about it. A strong bond, for sure!

        Not exactly a club we dreamed of being members in–but I’ll trust God’s judgment, eh?

      2. melodylowes

        Indeed! 🙂

    Ooh, Melody waxes especially melodious with this one. Sweetness and liberality drawn taut between the poles of hope and brokenness.

      Wow – you should really write poetry. You have a wonderful way with words! 🙂

    Well shucks, that’s a great idea.

    I think I’ll get started, e’en though we’ve departed.
    To that end I go,
    much more word play to show;
    then no one can call me retarded…(how am I doing so far?)

      Words actually fail me. I am write-less…… 🙂
