Careless Me
Have you seen it anyway?
Maybe underneath a tree
Or buried deeply underground
Maybe hidden above in the sky
Because I have looked everywhere
It was very careless of me
To misplace it when it should be safe
If only I had locked it away
I would still have it here, close by
Now I know that it could be anywhere
I think I may have given it away
To someone I trusted to look after it
Now that person is gone, and disgarded it
Thrown it to one side like a piece of rubbish
So I will search to find it somewhere
Heed my advice, and always look after yours
Protect it, keep it with you at all times
It needs you to be strong, stronger than I was
For if you lose it, I fear it may be broken
My heart is missing and I can find it nowhere
beautiful poetry, heart touching
Thanks everyone, I edited it John ; )
+Chris, I liked to poem but you might want to edit the third stanza, third line to read "Now that person went and discarded it" Also the last line of the poem contains a double negative. and that is an important line.I suggest "My Heart has gone missing and I can find it nowhere"
So tender...the heart cannot be silent, you will find it again! Dorothy A Poet who Loves To sing
The last line says it all...Very powerful indeed..Wonderful piece of poetry Chris..
