Bleeding heart...

Bleeding heart...

Please take what is within me and cradle it like you mean it
My bones heal when I fall, but I beat everyday just feel it
Are you willing to catch the drips when I weep for your hunger
I fumble around the rose petals just to smell the love that lingers

Will you hold my bleeding heart
Lost love is my lasting call
All I feel is liquid in my palm
Please take my bleeding heart...

Day after day, you will breathe the same scent from my hair
As the clock ticks, roses will turn black and you'll be in despair
Are you willing to whisper words in my ear to give me goosebumps
Will you brush your tongue across my lips, giving me a sensual rush

Will you hold my bleeding heart
Lost love is my lasting call
All I feel is liquid in my palm
Please take my bleeding heart...

I will accept your floating caress and I will feel submissively blessed
I will succumb, and my beat will become angelically dressed
My fatal romance with your soul will give me a glimpse of life
My weeping heart will become one, and it will start to run dry

Are you willing to hold me after what I've said?
The days are running thin, after all that I've bled
Let me grasp your hand, and put it against my beating chest
I will cherish you, I will love you, until no more days are left

Will you hold my bleeding heart
Lost love is my lasting call
All I feel is liquid in my palm
Please take my bleeding heart...
Drip, Drip, Drip...

I actually want to hold your bleeding heart and take a piece of that inspiration, maybe then I could write poetry as good as you.

Good rhyme scheme featuring an aabb rhyme scheme and some inventive slant or near rhyming.
The poem reads smoothly enough when read aloud.
I'm of the mind that when poetry is being reviewed it should always be read out loud. You get the full impact of what the poet is trying to say and the way in which he or she is attempting to say it. There's some good internal rhyme going on in the following stanza as well:

I will accept your floating caress and feel submissively blessed;
I will succumb, my beat becomes audible, angelically dressed.
This fatal romance will give us a chance at life, if we just but try.
Our weeping hearts will become as one, and soon start to run dry

A most excellent read, Wayne.
