Your String On My Heart

You control my every emotion
with your piece of string
You can make me fly
with beautiful wings

Yet as your mood strikes
without a thought
You pull so tight
and pull at my heart

Your string either steals my air
or fills me full of hope
Like pushing my buttons
My thoughts you provoke

Must we go on in this way
In light, then in dark
Let me be free from
your string on my heart

What a deeply emotional poem - one I could have personally related to a couple of years back.

How are you? Miss our chats on Helium. I must call back some time

This is a thought provoking poem Sammers and it has good flow. I love a poem that rhymes. Is this something you wrote a while ago or one you wrote just now? I ask because this is something I felt a few years ago and I finally left. The string is still there but it is no longer within his reach.

Keith! Thanks for visiting and for your comments on my poem. I'm glad this is a situation you are no longer in.

I miss you too and hope to see more of you in the upcoming days! Take Care!

Wynn,
This is actually something that came about when Rebecca mentioned she was going to write a poem about Heart Strings. The first thing that came to my mind was "your string on my heart". I wrote this in about 10 minutes on Christmas Eve, I believe.

I'm glad your string is no longer within his reach and you were strong and smart enough to put an end to it. Love you chickadee and thanks for visiting and your comments as well!

How about being a "Blogger of the World"? I nominate you and your web site for the award, which I proudly accepted from AngelBaby.

Angel has an article on her site about angels and a miracle which I think all should read, but I think you will like. The link is on my site, Gimme A Dream. You can pick up your award and the link at the same time.

Ever seen some of these before?

In a way, it addresses "who" is holding the string(s). Sometimes it might be your "left" brain, other times your "right"...
