I PAINTED MY HEART By Artutee


I was told to write a one word story
I was told it should hold pain and joy in it
The fangs of hope and dissapointment should be embedded on it
That it should be a symbol of what's to come but still a reminder of our past
I was told to let it speak but never to have a voice
So I settled for 'love' as my choice
I chose to poke the heart
Of its feelings 
I drew it's image up on my wall
And it sure told a tale of happy endings
It for sure held mixed feelings up its ink
It marked beginnings
Sometimes it had faded lights at its brink
Flickers of a future and memories that persuaded a thought
I chose love for it made me write this without a whisper
No voice,no echo
Just a guilt between pen and paper

WHEN WORDS WOULDN'T SPEAK

When words have nothing to say But the heart is full What would speak for you? What would speak to you? When the quiet of a heart And the sound of a meldy Would resonate with your truth That words could never say When you have to quietly shout to the world Silenltly tell your story What would speak to you? What would talk to you? When the chrip of birds And the rumbling of a waterfall Would not speak to you When quiet would not do What would speak to you? What would talk for you? What would authentically tell the world your story Authentically Not hiding a single note of the rhythm of your heart What would tell the world your desire Your fears and terror What would speak to you? What would speak for you? An old melody That holds a memory A sound that holds a longing That knows the notes of your heart Would that speak for you? Would it speak to you?
