Love Lies Bleeding

Love Lies Bleeding

Love lies bleeding
That's where you left it.
Haemorrhaging badly
Hanging by a thread.

I gave you my Soul
Poetry and Madness
High times and gladness
The half of the whole

I danced on the ledge beyond the edge
You were my oxygen
Filling my lungs with sweet tasting poison
Unraveling my senses

I shared so much of my self with you
An open heart bleeds the deepest red
Photographic negatives lie around my empty bed
Shell shocked and dazed I struggle to make sense of what I thought was you...

All the while my senses unraveling
My mind closing the doors on an unfinished story
Blood seeping from deep wounds
Faith draining from me like blood to a vampire bat.

Seeping from open wounds
Love lies, bleeding.

Hey, Ru T.
Where ya been? I haven't seen ya around these parts of late.
Hope all is well in  your world...

I shared so much of my self with you
An open heart bleeds the deepest red
Photographic negatives lie around my empty bed
Shell shocked and dazed I struggle to make sense of what I thought was you.

Wow...I can certainly relate to this.
It gave me chills.
You ever read something someone else wrote and it almost seems they're reading your mind—speaking directly to you?
This was it!
Exceptional poetry...
