Palpations Subside.
My heart is a cage; Plagued with chains,
From which I cannot seek escape.
A fleshy tomb contains my soul,
Writhing in agony. Afflictions take their toll.
Left mutilated and unhealed.
Such fragile fragments, cannot be renewed.
Forsaken, forlorn, and abused,
Such wounds leave no point of restore.
Each beat counts down, in steady rhythm.
Until the day my frail heart beats no more...
From which I cannot seek escape.
A fleshy tomb contains my soul,
Writhing in agony. Afflictions take their toll.
Left mutilated and unhealed.
Such fragile fragments, cannot be renewed.
Forsaken, forlorn, and abused,
Such wounds leave no point of restore.
Each beat counts down, in steady rhythm.
Until the day my frail heart beats no more...

Seeing your pain
So fresh and strong
Cant compare to any
Poem or song
Understanding your pain
Fills me with dread
I want to see you happy instead
But alas I'm unable
To erase all your pain
I just want you to know
That I feel the same

Great title, catchy first lines/stanza,
"My heart is a cage; Plagued with chains,
From which I cannot seek escape.
A fleshy tomb contains my soul, "
excellent imagery.
