A Wounded Heart's Endurance Poem by James Darwin Smith II

Torn heart yearning for absolve
Here I am, let me in
Coming through
Will you accept it?



The struggle, I will instil
Through every pain felt within
Every agonizing defeat
I strive to dispel, distil
Even if it means no turning back
And breaking mine into oblivion
Over and over again



Have Fought many battles, I confess
This heart has been to hell and back
Many different places visited
So many poisonous arrows pierced in
But it remains stronger than it ever been before
Someway, Somehow



So much sorrow it has, I admit
But that is for only me to feel
All its love belongs to whom it may receive it
Reaching other dreams
Further than it could ever reach
Fulfilling dreams, if only things could be real



Do you notice me?
No need, Unsung I will always be
As long there is an opening
Of some sort of respect
That will be my most humble acceptance



You are cordially invited
To every inch of this heart's consent
The love of it all
Break it up even more if you want to
Striven to be mended many times before



Bittersweet ambitions
Each dying beat
Preparing for life
The light at the end of it all
Where salvation awaits
And a new evolution of self begins



This heart was never torn
It was all in my head
So much pain before, yes
Even now the poisonous memories are pierced in
But, here I am
Still fighting for the right
To exist in some form or another



The mental pain is worst
Yet, to feel passion so strongly within
As the cure is the remedy of self-digging deep
Inside the heart of the matter
Where I will finally truthfully be fully revered



Even if I am never seen
Invisible I see clearly
That is till all has been truly revealed



Mentally stitched up heart beating strong
Many distances it has felt
All it wants to do
Is to make sure another will never
Feel one ounce of the pain it has ever felt before



This heart has many flaws
But all of it is real
Never will I fake love even in spite
That for who need its touch
I will always make it safe to feel



This heart has been through a lot
But all its pain is for only me to feel



Welcome to my truest heart's ambition
Where does it all go from here?



I suppose it all opens up for interpretation
There will never be anything left to fear
Leave all the darkness and pain to me
I will take it all in



My sacrifice, my all, near
This heart's endurance will always be right here



Never fear, this heart will always be near
This I solemnly swear



Do you believe in me?
I believe in you



A wounded heart's endurance,
Flowing with flaws
Pumping diligently with internal bleeding tears



A wounded heart's endurance has now truly been revealed



Now what do you feel? At least say something…


What do you expect from me? Highly concealed
