Your Beating Heart

The world around me, full of danger, batters at my doors
Seeking access to my secrets, wearing down my will.
Looks and comments, sneers and laughter, crash upon my shores.
Constant pressure, self-erosion, throwing darts until
The image of myself grows blurry, trapped within the mists
Of foul descriptions, made by churls, who seek to cast me down.
But I will only bend, not break, for I know there exists
A faith in me, so true, that they will never let me drown.
When tempests blow and raging storms, unleashed, tear me apart,
I do not break, for I am safe, within your beating heart.

😊👍 really good! it a great message of determination/survival..

reminded me of this line from one of my favorites..

The human heart is very soft and the way the world talks, sometimes it gets very upset and starts crying, but what comes after that is strong, then any human being. He just looks at his life and works hard at it and succeeds as people keep talking whatever they want. If we want to succeed in life, we have to believe in ourselves and work hard to succeed and listen to the world in one ear and out the other.

It's a well detailed poem. Always go on without excuses and full of survival instincts !

Very nice, I like that despite everything, you keep that beating heart afloat because the world often wants to bend us but it will be twice as hard for them, very cool poem ♥

It feels good to have someone who have so much faith in us, their heart becomes our safest haven.

The feeling of being safe in the embrace of the one you love is amazing.
