How Much is a Heart Worth?


Absoloutely nothing if it's not handled as though it is made of the finest crystal and cherished as the rarest of objects. A heart given in love should be revered and cosseted to ensure that it stays healthy and happy. xx

The Doll

I am a silent doll

Sitting in the corner deep.

I can speak but I cannot speak the words to say,

In unforgiving silence I must stay.

If I tell my secret

I would feel the burning shame.

So I stay forever in stasis with

My lips sealed.

Cobwebs fill my mind when

I cannot say the things I need to speak.

The corner is my solace,

My hands are clasped and on my lap.

Eyes are vacant, no more luster,

Time has passed too far to bother.

Mother chides me if I try

Saying that I am telling lies.

Longing for to hear the sound,

When my body lowers to the ground.



I wish I could find the right words to tell you that you are greater than your horrific experiences. Your heart is massive, your love all encompassing and your good nature a magnet to all souls. This world and this site would be a lonelier, darker and less interesting place without your innate sunshine-bright character and personality to illuminate it. You are loved, wanted and needed. Treasure these truths for they are your 'today' reality.

You are very kind.
Lots of hugs to you.

Do I let go
Letting fear win
Should I hold on
Living this sin

My heart is breaking
My anxiety is high
Though it is precious
It's all a big lie

You're my weakness
My tortuous knight
I will stay ...IF
You also fight

Don't use me
Let this not be abuse
For if this is real
Its worth all I'll lose

My brain sometimes malfunctions
Threatens to overload
As I navigate the junctions
Of life's confusing road
If life seems jolly rotten
there's something you've forgotten
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing

Wow.... There is another story behind this 'story', clearly.

Where the heart is concerned any decision we make is fraught with apprehension and 'danger'. The thing we all most fear is getting hurt, but, unfortunately, that's the risk you have to take if you want a relationship with someone you care about. I hope it all works out right for you.

You know the old adage is true,
Everybody plays the fool?
That is certainly true.
I thought I was the fool, a joker, a harlequin.
Now I see it was you all along.

My eyes can see what my heart cannot,
My mind is catching up
To what held me down.
Ghosts of us I must let go.
Once upon a time I thought you were perfect.

Edith



When I get to heaven,
I'll see you sing, front row seat,
Front row and center.
Red roses to give you afterwards,
You are The Little Sparrow.
Into my soul, you shot an arrow.

Your voice is heavenly,
Your soul was hurt and tortured.
I can hear that in every note you sing.
When I get to heaven, will you perform for me, beautiful Edith?

As the daylight starts showing the world
and the sun soon will light up the sky
I decided to simply enjoy it
and to live without wondering why
If life seems jolly rotten
there's something you've forgotten
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing

I know you watch me.
I can feel you there, looking over my shoulder.
I wasn't good enough for you,
Now the opposite is true.

I'm fucking sick of it,
people stealing my shit.
Get a muse of your own
before I decide to cleave you in half
I'm not even kidding, your work is a laugh.

There's no substance to it,
it's totally shit,
yet you don't realise...
You're a fucking twit.

Fuck off.

Where is it? I'm sorry.

I'll complain and comment.

Thats so low life.
My stuff may never be the best but it is mine.

I don't care about best. I just have to put it into the universe.

I should try different mediums.

My personality is all about feelings.

My heart and head, very seperated.

Still Haunting Me
I can feel you in the shadows, watching me silently.
You cannot speak but I know
You are missing me.
Perhaps it is my voice or
The place you once occupied in my heart.
I can feel the tiniest atoms changing
All around me, fine as the smallest particles
There ever was, or will be.
I sense it is you.
I can feel your energy searching
For me, if only in the tiniest way.
You still haunt me,
I wonder how you are.
What's new with you?
Do you ever think of me
The way I think of you?
I have missed you.
Will there be a day that I won't?
I still love and think of you.
You are still haunting me.

Get a life, please?

What difference does it make to you who posts what? You have a simple option: read it or don't.

This sort of post is inappropraite, nasty and unhelpful. please learn to be a little more tolerant and patient. One day it might be YOU who needs supprt...


Do you know what plagiarism is? Go and look it up. It causes genuine stress to people, even if they are just amateurs. This wasn't targeted at anyone on the site, so just shut your face, and get a life yourself. I'm intolerant of thieves, simple as that. You might want to get all the facts before you start attacking people.

Questions
Would your heart be alright
If I suddenly passed away?
Would you be at peace with yourself
Without anymore words to say?
What will you be remembered for as you're knocking on heaven's door?
Will the angels let you in or
Send you to an endless hell of your own making?
Hearts are not made of stone.
Yet you crushed mine
Into a million pieces.
They flutter into the wind,
Never to be held back together again.
Now all I'm left with is doubt.

If you suddenly passed away?
My heart would fail and crumble
My soul would freeze that day
And I would falter, stumble

I would not care about those angels
They could send me straight to hell
I would be in there already
that's what my cold soul would tell
If life seems jolly rotten
there's something you've forgotten
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing

Here I made a statement
complaining 'bout my peers
and as they seem to listen
I'm saying to them: cheers!

Dear me, aren't we the hot-head?

Your language and attitude are totally out of place - and out of proportion - on this site.

Also, I don't believe a word of your reply: it seems too damn coincidental that your post followed on the heels of a member who is suffering and struggling at the moment. You claim it's about plagiarism, but your vile diatribe reads more like a nasty attack on another member of the site.

And, yes, bright spark, having been the victim of plagiarism, I know exactly what it is. The main thing is that I dealt with the situation in a mature and calm manner by asking the site owners to remove the plagiarised work and to ban the plagiariser, which is exactly what they did... What I did not do was post a vile-worded piece of crap about it like you have... if you are to be believed, of course.

I suggest you grow up, try and act more responsibly and stop posting such pathetic drivel on the threads. If you have a genuine issue take it with the mods, That's what they are there for.


I have no knowledge of a member here "suffering and struggling". If you don't like what I post, just bugger off. I attacked nobody, I named no names, so your accusation is completely false. In other words, just shut the hell up.

p.s. It would be neat, if you gentlemen would delete your spitefull entries. It would greatly enhance the reading pleasure. Thanks.


Done from my end, p. Unfortunately I can't remove the quoted posts...

Who knew we had such a hothead on the site? (I'm actually being very polite!)

Anyway, it's up to our young friend to do his bit now...
