Thoughts From E.E. Cummings

I found this on Blogger "Here is My Heart," I like the sentiments. :)

“Love is the voice under all silences, the hope which has no opposite in fear; the strength so strong mere force is feebleness: the truth more first than sun, more last than star…” E. E. Cummings

Bleeding Heart

I would if I could

Heal the whole wide world

Patch up and fix all the holes

I've tried

Ended up with a bleeding heart

Restraint

Daily I've struggled

Swallowed tears

Screamed in pillows

Aching for relief

So sore from living, so tired

Restraint

Left alone to leave alone

Spring Fireworks

Fireworks

Bursting through the branches

White illuminations

lamplight through spring flowers

From Here and There

Little hints of joy

here and there

a dash of the dramatic

from bits of time

stolen seconds

in-between

here and there
