Rebellious heart

by Elisabeth Barstowe — Read all 441 poems by Elisabeth Barstowe

Saturday, July 8, 2023

 

In the sun I wonder
about love I ponder

I am missing a piece of my puzzle
getting myself all tuzzled

As I toss and turn at night
I keep thinking about

Where did it all go wrong?
Was it in the notes of a song?

No. It happened so many years ago
and now I find myself wishing it wasn't so

What am I supposed to do
when all I think about is you

You, you and you
through and through

I try to plead with my rebellious heart
the one that betrayed me from the start

Just leave me be to the life I've allready got
it is a good life and I simply cannot

Leave it be for a dream that I don't know where it ends
so please heart stop with these repeat sends

 But you keep coming back for more
luring me to crave that distant shore

I don't think we can help thinking about something we can't obtain. It can haunt us if we let it. But you let it out in this poem.
