Scared of you girl! No, this was real, angry and very, very well written. I truly enjoyed being angry as I read it! But I also felt a sadness that I am very familar with! You're not alone! Believe me.
Some pretty deep stuff there... you showed just showed how badly love gone bad can really effect a person emotions and transforming them into someone even they may not recognize. This is powerful work.
Wow! I have been there and done that before. Remind me to tell you about the Xmas eve when I wanted to get as low. . .well. . .some other time. Hmm. . .think that could be a poem. Well, emz, just more grist for the mill. I don't know how much it helps, but at least you know a few people here who will listen.

I'm sure your heart is anything but blue
Anger may make it feel this way, but it will pass
To me you have the heart of a loving passionate lady
The wine may help LOL
The man that finds you will be a lucky one
A write of great pain and darkness
You will see light again soon
Wonderfully written Ray { Not a Poet }
The beauty of abstract art is that it leaves itself completely open to individual interpretation and each interpretation can be as unique as the individual. What I get from the painting is the redemptive power of that blue heart- how it sweeps in to cool the hot, boiling enviroment around it.
Your poem however is beautiful- how the emotions around you are in turmoil yet you have your cold blue stone heart- steady and unrelenting against the chaos. Unfortunately this heart was made blue and cold by its surroundings, sickened by fluxed emotions.
I do hope your view of the world has brightened some since you wrote this poem!
I have had my share of those moments that you have described so well. It's not just a visual you give, "twisted like hazel" or "blood falls as does the sweet drops of red wine" it's a sensation, "angry like a thunderous night" " hatred washing over me" that held me to the end.
empty as my childhood memories.
Love this line, The poem seemed to start out in fear but as it progress to the end the feelings are gone and you develope a stregth. Well written I did enjoy.
