Shattered Soul – A Poem

I looked at her aberrant heart,
scattered thought,
rough outlook,
raging visage spitting anger,
never able to trust any soul,
she screamed,
taunted,
traced random paths,

And in the midst of the chaos
I gently drew her towards me,
close enough so that there was no space to abut
and then I caressed her scars,
felt the pain
and remained consumed in her love,
stayed blessed,

And soon, she was not the same anymore
for I infected her with love
one, she was never aware of

  2. I love the way you wrap her in your words of love … and I can feel the romance just about to start . You go….💕

  3. When we are hurt we have the tendency of building some walls, let the dogs out to try to prevent further pain, until the day that someone comes to our life, and with pacience and love nick down brick by brick, heal our scars, show us what love is, unlock close doors, make us believe and love again… thy truly wrap us in love!💕💕
