It's not an image <br />one may contemplate, <br />nor a picture-perfect <br />aspect of your mind, <br />one thing may be certain, <br />that the beauty it reveals, <br />and ultimately shines upon the world, <br />is a force so amazing and incredible, <br />it baffles minds <br /> <br />Beyond undoubted belief, <br />and if could only envision <br />pieces of this inconceivable wonder <br />ripped out, <br />without an instance of hesitation, <br />and at the most heart wrenching of times, <br />not replaced with the same endearment, <br />but when the connection, <br />as strong and vital as ever, <br />the piece, once torn out so effortlessly, <br />are no longer empty, <br /> <br />Filled with the fragments of another's heart <br />that never quite fit right, <br />but in its own way, <br />under the watch of a not so common eye, <br />it reveals a sense of beauty all it own, <br />a patchwork heart, <br />captive in everybody, <br />hidden behind the mask of <br />the superficial world, <br />only to be revealed to <br />the souls of many <br />when they look past that world <br />into the windows of the soul, <br />and observe another for who <br />they truly are<br /><br />Nicole GravellPellerino<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/patchwork-heart-2/
